Tasting Notes

The Blanc de Lynch Bages is a blend of 66% Sauvignon Blanc, 12% Semillon and 22% Muscadelle raised in 50% new oak. It has a well-defined bouquet with lime, green apple, chalk dust and a touch of white peach. The palate is well balanced on the entry with the oak nicely assimilated, leading to a poised finish that shows nice weight and persistency. Tasted April 2012.

Score: 90 - 92

Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com 30 April 2012

This has bright focus, with thyme, white asparagus and Meyer lemon notes that stay pure and sleek through the finish.

Score: 88 - 91

James Molesworth, Wine Spectator 09 April 2012

Very lively white with wonderful pineapple, honey and lemons on the nose and palate. Great finish with such intensity. Mineral, white pepper, and tropical fruit. Complex aftertaste of spices, pie crust, and lemon meringue. Fab. 66% Sauvignon Blanc, 12% Semillon, and 22% Muscadelle. Production about 1,500 cases, or so.

Score: 94 - 95
