Deep garnet red in colour, Château Lynch-Bages 2016 has the characteristics of a remarkably mature vintage. The nose is very expressive with notes of dark fruit (blackcurrant, morello cherry, etc.) mixed with fresh touches of mint. The attack is smooth, revealing an exceptional substance, supported by a wonderful freshness. The tannins are already remarkably well-blended.
Grape Varietals:
75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot
97 Points - Falstaff, June 2017. "Deep dark ruby garnet, opaque core, subtle brightening on the rim. Ripe cherry on the nose with fine blackberry confit, a touch of noble wood and candied orange zest. Complex and very juicy with ripe cherry fruit, well-integrated tannins, good sense of drive towards the back, excellent length and precision. Definite ageing potential."
97 Points - The Wine Independent, December 2022.
97 Points - Wine Spectator, March 2019.
95 Points - Wine Enthusiast, May 2019. "Rich, jammy and powerful, this wine is all about concentration and firm tannins. Ripe black-currant flavors add great juiciness at the end. The wine has magnificent potential. Drink from 2025."
17.5/20 Points - Vinum Wine Magazine, June 2019. "Very restrained, with notes of herbs and berries; juicy, fruity build, tart tannins, race and great length; Successful and in style."
