TASTING NOTES: The 1986 Lynch Bages has a knockout bouquet that wraps its arms around you with all its loveliness: pure black cherries, mint and cedar, even a touch of glycerine still there. Vibrant and youthful. The palate is beautifully balanced, crisp and taut, linear but very precise with a fine bead of acidity. You just fall for the harmony of this Lynch Bages, the intensity of fruit that seems undiminished on the finish. Is it up there with the 1989 and 1990? Maybe not, but it is not far behind. Frankly this Lynch Bages is a 1986 Claret that you cannot own too much of and as I commented to Jean-Michel Cazes tasting alongside me, at 30 years of age it still has more to give. Tasted July 2016.

Château Lynch-Bages

About Château Lynch-Bages

Château Lynch-Bages, a venerable estate with roots tracing back to the 18th century, is a jewel in the prestigious Pauillac appellation on Bordeaux's left bank. Under the ownership of the Cazes family, notably managed by Jean-Charles Cazes, the estate has carved its place among the elite, bearing the coveted classification of Cinquième Cru (Fifth Growth) in the Bordeaux Classification of 1855.

The vineyards of Château Lynch-Bages span around 100 hectares, where classic Bordeaux grape varieties – Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot – thrive in the deep gravel soils. This terroir, coupled with a commitment to traditional winemaking, shapes wines that are renowned for their robustness, depth, and impressive aging potential.

Following traditional methods, the grapes undergo fermentation in stainless steel or wooden vats, and the wines are gracefully aged in oak barrels, including a significant portion of new oak. The resulting wines, characterized by dark fruit flavors, notes of cedar, tobacco, and the distinctive Pauillac minerality, showcase a harmonious interplay of elements. The structured tannins contribute to their longevity, allowing Château Lynch-Bages wines to evolve and mature gracefully over time.

As a Cinquième Cru, the estate stands as a beacon of quality, and its commitment to innovation is evident in its embrace of modern techniques and sustainable viticulture practices. Alongside its grand vin, Château Lynch-Bages produces Echo de Lynch-Bages, a second wine that offers a more approachable expression of the estate's terroir.
