A pretty white with lots of depth and length. Medium-bodied with a creamy texture and notes of lemon rind, sliced mangoes and peaches. Velvety phenolics give form and balance. A blend of 81% sauvignon blanc, 11% semillon...

Yellow citrus, pomelo, flowers, white peach, Granny Smith apples, and lemon curd notes blend together perfectly in the nose, and on the palate, leaving you with a citrusy, tropical note in the finish. The wine is produced...

Green apple, crisp and fresh on the nose with some lemon citrus bitterness. Mellow and round, this has a nice weight on the palate, the acidity is masked by the ripeness of the fruit only lingering in the soft bitter...

White peach and pear, green apple and citrus here, reserved but with plenty of grilled cumin and sage spice, and this is a wine that tends to deepen over the year following bottling (it is already in bottle but to be...

Picking for the 2023 Blanc de Lynch-Bages started in late August, and it had been bottled the week before tasting. It pops from the glass with vibrant notes of white peaches, fresh pears, and lemon curd followed by hints...

Vinous, April 2024

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...

The 2023 Lynch Bages Blanc de Lynch Bages is a remarkable Bordeaux Blanc from the prestigious region of Bordeaux, specifically, the sub-region of Pauillac, France. This exquisite white wine, produced by Lynch Bages, is a testament to the superior quality of French winemaking.

The Blanc de Lynch-Bages, as reviewed by Antonio Galloni of Vinous, is a delightful concoction of bright citrus peel, dried flowers, almond, lime, and crushed rocks that lend depth and nuance to the taste. Its taste profile is further enhanced by a dash of Muscadelle, adding a tropical flair that does not overpower the balance of flavors. Jeb Dunnuck compliments the wine for its lively, juicy, and elegant style, marked by bright citrus, honeyed flowers, and a chalky minerality, a testament to its Sauvignon Blanc dominance.

Jane Anson notes the presence of white peach and pear, green apple, and citrus with a hint of grilled cumin and sage spice. She mentions that the wine tends to deepen over the year following bottling, promising an exciting evolution in taste.

The Wine Independent's Lisa Perrotti-Brown describes a vibrant palate of white peaches, fresh pears, and lemon curd, followed by hints of lime blossom, wet pebbles, and wild thyme. The blend of 81% Sauvignon Blanc, 11% Semillon, and 8% Muscadelle culminates in a zippy and refreshing medium-bodied palate with loads of citrus and chalky layers and an invigorating finish.

All reviewers seem to agree on a score of 92, indicating the high caliber and consistency of this wine. The 2023 Lynch Bages Blanc de Lynch Bages, with its cork closure and white hue, stands as a paragon of top-quality Bordeaux Blanc, a must-have for any wine connoisseur.
