Full-bodied, fat and with a characteristic vanilla woody taste, the dry white wine of Lynch-Bages plays the charm and fabric card. Less than 2000 cases produced each year, far insufficient for global success.
Quarin : 92/100 « Ce vin vient juste d'être mis en bouteilles. Couleur pâle, aux reflets verts. Nez intense, fin, pur et fruité, sentant bon la poire. En bouche, la joie de boire bon et frais m'enchante. Corps juteux et parfumé (merci la muscadelle), texture soyeuse, le vin jongle dans la bouche. C'est superbe ! »
Le Point : 15.5/20 « Sauvignon mûr, plutôt délicat, frais, une discrétion aromatique à tendance pierreuse qui rappelle le sancerre. »
Galloni : 92/100 « The 2023 Blanc de Lynch-Bages, just bottled a week before this tasting, is terrific. Bright citrus peel, dried flowers, almond, lime and crushed rocks lend quite a bit of nuance. A dollop of Muscadelle adds tropical flair without
overpowering the balance. This is very nicely proportioned. »
Martin : 87-89/100 « The 2023 Blanc de Lynch-Bages has a fresh, orchard-fruit-scented bouquet, maybe a bit constrained since it was only bottled two weeks prior to my visit. The palate is well balanced with more complexity than the aromatics at the
moment-pear and white peach, with almond shavings toward the finish. Fine. »
