Blanc de Lynch-Bages 2025

Expressive, still slightly marked by oak, yet with a wonderful Sauvignon perfume combining floral and spicy notes; a powerful, full-bodied palate, a sweet core of fruit, top acidity, a creamy texture and excellent length. More opulent than last year, perfect as a food partner.

White peach and jasmine aromas, floral and fragrant with some pear drop notes. Smells really clean and fragrant. An initial burst of fruit with lively acidity before settling into a cool freshness with a soft mineral finish. Some creamy lemon and lime, mouthwatering acidity and a really slick, clean long finish. I like this a lot. Feels hands-off, so mineral and pure, not hugely layered but more focused and straight - delicate and nuanced, less demonstrative than it can be. First vintage with 5% Sauvignon Gris. 3.20pH. Bottled end of March 2026. 11ha in total for white grape plantings.

A tight and solid wine with phenolic tension and bright acidity. Medium body, with sliced green apples and pears, with hints of honeysuckle, as well as mineral and sea salt undertones. Crunchy finish. A blend of 60% sauvignon blanc, 24% semillon, 11% muscadelle and 5% sauvignon gris. Drink now.

The 2025 Blanc de Lynch-Bages is terrific. This is the first year with some Sauvignon Gris. The 2025 offers a beguiling mix of textural richness and aromatic intensity. Pear, green apple and jasmine open first, followed by light tropical overtones that lend an exotic flair. This was just bottled but is drinking very well today.

Pineapples, white peach, flowers, thyme, and lemon peel aromas fill the aromatic profile. Fresh, and juicy, your palate enjoys its blast of Granny smith apples, pineapples, grapefruit, and lemon curd, all topped with white peaches. The wine is produced from blending 60% Sauvignon Blanc, 24% Semillon, 11% Muscadelle, and 5% Sauvignon Gris. This marks the first vintage with Sauvignon Gris in the blend. 13.4% ABV. Drink from 2027-2035. 94-94 Pts

Checking in as a blend of 60% Sauvignon Blanc, 24% Sémillon, 11% Muscadelle, and 5% Sauvignon Gris, the 2025 Château Lynch-Bages Blanc is a vibrant, racy white with a perfumed nose of citrus, honeyed tropical flowers, mint, and chalky minerality. Medium-bodied on the palate, it's fresh, focused, and balanced, with bright acidity and a clean, crisp finish. Already bottled, it should have 10-15 years of longevity. Drink 2026-2041.

Salted crackers, preserved lemons, patisserie notes, love the white peach and pear flesh, this is an exceptional Blanc de Lynch Bages in a vintage that had challenges for the whites after a hot dry summer. 25hl/ha yield. 3.20 pH. Harvest August 26 to September 4. 50% new oak, already bottled.

The bouquet of the blanc de Lynch Bages is open and harmonious, with notes of white-fleshed fruit (apples, pears) along with a touch of nectarine and flint. The creamy, tangy attack gives way to a velvety, expressive wine. It is driven by a structuring acidity and is also supported by fine bitter notes that add a hint of freshness and length on the finish. A mouthwatering, savory wine to enjoy both young and with a bit of age.
