Vinous

The 2021 Lynch-Bages, picked at 34hL/ha and matured in 75 new oak for a planned 18 months, has an outstanding bouquet, beautifully-defined and sensual, a mixture of black and blueberry fruit, very fragrant. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannins, good body and density, quite precise with a tensile finish. This fans out nicely on the finish. A very classy Lynch Bages with echoes of Jean-Michel Cazes' classics from the late eighties. 13.14 alcohol. –Neal Martin Barrel Sample: 94-96
