Winemaker Notes
The 2024 vintage of Château Lynch-Bages aptly embodies the DNA of Domaine: power, precision and depth.
From gravelly Garonne terroirs on the outskirts of Pauillac, this Grand Cru Classé stands out this year for its phenolic maturity, dazzling fruit and refined tannic structure. Cabernet Sauvignon (70%) asserts its role as the backbone, with a dense, upright structure, while Merlot and complementary grape varieties (Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot) add complexity and suavity.
Aged 18 months in barrels (75% new), Lynch-Bages 2024 is full-bodied and racy on the palate, with a lingering, saline finish. A great Pauillac, designed for ageing, which brilliantly blends the generosity of its fruit with the elegance of its terroir.
About Winery
1855 Grand Cru Classe – 5th Growth The chateau was founded in the 18th century by the Liberal family. Most of the wines produced here were exported to the Netherlands and Belgium. Half of the wines of the chateau are planted just next to the First Growth Chateau Latour.
Overlooking the Gironde estuary at the entrance to Pauillac, the vines of Lynch-Bages are located on the Bages plateau, on one of the finest gravelly rises in the appellation. The estate once belonged to the famous Lynch family, of Irish origin, and was acquired by Jean-Charles Cazes in 1934. His grandson, Jean-Michel Cazes restructured the estate in 1974, adding state-of-the-art winemaking equipment, while keeping the former wooden vats as a reminder of the 19th century.
The grapes are all hand picked and then carefully sorted before crushing. A very strict selection is made prior to blending and the wine is traditionally aged in oak barrels before bottling.
Today, the winery is managed by Claire Villars Lurton. Under her management the estate has undergone complete renovation to organic and biodynamic vineyard management. The grounds of the chateau were fully renovated in 2018.
