Tension and ripeness play off each other in the 2018 Blanc de Lynch-Bages, which layers succulent white peach and melon with zesty grapefruit, lemon peel and a cool, stony edge. The palate is creamy yet brisk, with vibrant acidity and subtle oak spice giving shape and length to the citrus- and stone-fruited finish.
Citrus-marinated grilled sea bass, Lemon herb roast chicken, Goat cheese and spring vegetable tart
Blanc de Lynch‑Bages is a pioneering dry white from Pauillac’s famed Château Lynch‑Bages, blending Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and Muscadelle from gravelly parcels on the historic Bages plateau. First released in 1990, it’s typically vibrant and aromatic in youth—showing citrus, white peach and exotic fruits with floral and subtle vanilla‑oak notes—yet gains creamy texture, dried‑fruit complexity and a long, saline finish with a few years in bottle.
