Complete description
Vintage Description:
Cassis, chocolate-covered cherries, mulberries and menthol notions, backed up by scents of garrigue, tilled soil and a waft of tapenade. Medium to full-bodied, rich and fantastically concentrated, the generous fruit is superbly framed by firm, ripe, grainy tannins with tons of pepper, cinnamon and cloves layers coming through on the finish. (Lisa Perrotti-Brown - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 30th Nov 2018)wine:

Château Lynch-Bageswine description:
The wines of Chateau Lynch Bages combine power, concentration, style, and charm, bridging the gap stylistically between tradition and modernity. They age superbly but also require a few years of maturation and some patience to fully reveal their best qualities.country:
