Château Lynch-Bages is a Pauillac estate classified as a Fifth Growth in 1855 and owned by the Cazes family since the first half of the 20th century. Decanter, quoted by Bottle Barn, says it way over-delivers on that Fifth Growth status.

The 2019 is 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot. It was aged 18 months in French oak, 75% of it new. The château lists it at 14.1% alcohol.

The château describes fresh fruit and spice with subtle oak on the nose, then a creamy, balanced palate with dense, powerful tannins and precise fruit. Jeb Dunnuck calls it a massive, incredibly concentrated Lynch-Bages, and Antonio Galloni of Vinous calls it a total stunner.

Against Château Haut-Bailly 2020, Lynch-Bages is the more Cabernet-driven wine, 70% Cabernet Sauvignon against 52%; for a structured Pauillac to lay down, choose Lynch-Bages.

Jeb Dunnuck advises cellaring it for seven to eight years and says it can evolve for 40 to 50, while Wine Spectator says it is best from 2025.

Awards

100 Jeb Dunnuck
"The 2019 Château Lynch-Bages is stunningly good, and it's going to be interesting to compare this to the 2018 over the coming decades. Based on 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, and the balance Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, brought up in 75% new French oak, its dense purple hue is followed by an incredible bouquet of pure crème de cassis, freshly sharpened cedar pencil, spring flowers, smoke, and graphite, with an almost liqueur of rocks-like minerality. A massive, incredibly concentrated Lynch-Bages, Jean-Charles has hit a home run in the vintage, and this sensational wine has building, perfect tannins, insane purity, and a finish that won't quit. It has the purity, finesse, balance, and depth to offer pleasure not only today but to evolve for 40 to 50 years. Smart money will hide these for a good 7-8 years, but wow, what a wine. Bravo."

"The 2019 Lynch Bages is every bit as magnificent from bottle as it was from barrel, if not moreso. What a wine! Towering and vertical in its bearing, the 2019 is a total stunner. There is plenty of Lynch Bages charm, but what distinguishes the 2019 most is its spine of tannin and energy. Time in the glass brings out sweet red cherry, plum, blood orange and pomegranate and mint. The 2019 is a great, great, great Lynch Bages. It reminds me of the epic 1989, but with the youthful grip of this vintage. A towering Pauillac, the 2019 Lynch Bages will make a great addition to any cellar. (AG)"
