The 2011 Château Lynch-Bages is a classic, structured Pauillac. It is drinking beautifully.
Blend: Typically Cabernet Sauvignon dominant, blended with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot.
Tasting Profile: Dark ruby/purple hue with aromas of blackcurrants, graphite, leather, cedar, and subtle mocha. It offers excellent freshness, firm yet mature tannins, and a long, velvety finish.
Vintage Context: 2011 was an earlier and challenging vintage in Bordeaux, yielding wines with classic structure and good acidity rather than excessive ripeness.
