This white shows lots of lemon, lime and sliced-green-pineapple character. Full body, bright acidity and a clean, fresh finish. Very mineral and intense. Powerful backbone of fruit. Fab. 66% sauvignon blanc, 12% sémillon and 22% muscadelle. Production about 1,500 cases. Drink now or hold.
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.
