Lynch Bages 2011

Lynch-Bages

Case Format: 12x75cl

Max score: 93.0

The estate’s reputation as a top quality wine producer took off in 1945 after a series of exceptional vintages. Since then, Lynch-Bages has continued to produce excellent wines, even during years considered difficult in the Bordeaux region. The wine’s deep colour and tannic backbone have become part of its signature style. Jean-Michel Cazes, grandson of Jean-Charles, has worked hard to develop and refine the wine’s supple and smooth structure over the years. Vintage after vintage, the estate’s precise and excellent winemaking techniques have served to firmly establish Lynch-Bages reputation for consistent quality.

Julia Harding MW

Sweet, pure damson fruit. Firm, rich, dense. Compact and closed but powder-fine tannins. All in place but not yet showing itself. Really chewy finish. Long and thickly textured. (JH)

Richard Hemming MW

Outstanding blackcurrant fruit with a long, intense, flavoursome palate. Fine but extremely powerful tannin which deserves much more bottle age. Impressive and intense without being over-extracted. (RH)
