Château Lynch Bages, Pauillac 2019
RRP £91
Textbook pencil lead and cassis Pauillac, with impressive density, power and length, this blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 3% Cabernet franc and 3% Petit Verdot lives up to the wine’s underrated status: a 5th growth that should be 2nd in vintages like 2019. It combines elegance with expected power: supple, opulent, exciting balance, beautiful length. Aged 18 months in 75% new oak.
