Nose
Aromas of fresh and exotic fruits from Sauvignon Blanc, dried and candied fruits and white flowers from Sémillon and delicate woody and vanilla notes from Muscadelle come together to make this complex Lynch-Bages White.
Palate
The palate balances freshness and strength with a round, ample yet elegant structure. Characteristic of fine Bordeaux whites, Lynch-Bages White is lively and explosive in its early youth and retains impressive length on the palate for the duration of its life.
Growing Conditions
« Terroir » (soil): Garonne Gravel.
Harvest
Hand-picked and sorted at the vineyard.
Winemaking
Born in 1990, Lynch-Bages White is made from a blend of the Bordeaux appellation's three traditional white grape varieties, planted on eight of the Pauillac estate's parcels. Increased precision in the selection process since 2006 as well as preventing oxidation to the fruit before pressing contribute to the harmonious ageing of the wine.
