Chateau Lynch Bages blanc 2025

James Suckling: A tight and solid wine with phenolic tension and bright acidity. Medium body, with sliced green apples and pears, with hints of honeysuckle, as well as mineral and sea salt undertones. Crunchy finish. A blend of 60% sauvignon blanc, 24% semillon, 11% muscadelle and 5% sauvignon gris. Drink now."

Decanter: White peach and jasmine aromas, floral and fragrant with some pear drop notes. Smells really clean and fragrant. An initial burst of fruit with lively acidity before settling into a cool freshness with a soft mineral finish. Some creamy lemon and lime, mouthwatering acidity and a really slick, clean long finish. I like this a lot. Feels hands-off, so mineral and pure, not hugely layered but more focused and straight - delicate and nuanced, less demonstrative than it can be. First vintage with 5% Sauvignon Gris. 3.20pH. Bottled end of March 2026. 11ha in total for white grape plantings."

Lisa Perrotti-Brown: The 2025 Blanc de Lynch-Bages pops from the glass with notes of fresh pineapple, passion fruit, and elderflower with touches of jasmine tea, wet slate, and candle wax. The medium-bodied palate is crisp and intense with a chalky texture enveloping the bright tropical fruit layers, finishing with a zesty lift. The blend is 60% Sauvignon Blanc, 24% Sémillon, 11% Muscadelle, and 5% Sauvignon Gris. It has a pH of 3.2, and the alcohol is 13.4%."

Jeb Dunnuck: Checking in as a blend of 60% Sauvignon Blanc, 24% Sémillon, 11% Muscadelle, and 5% Sauvignon Gris, the 2025 Château Lynch-Bages Blanc is a vibrant, racy white with a perfumed nose of citrus, honeyed tropical flowers, mint, and chalky minerality. Medium-bodied on the palate, it's fresh, focused, and balanced, with bright acidity and a clean, crisp finish. Already bottled, it should have 10-15 years of longevity. Drink 2026-2041."

The Wine Cellar Insider: Pineapples, white peach, flowers, thyme, and lemon peel aromas fill the aromatic profile. Fresh, and juicy, your palate enjoys its blast of Granny smith apples, pineapples, grapefruit, and lemon curd, all topped with white peaches. The wine is produced from blending 60% Sauvignon Blanc, 24% Semillon, 11% Muscadelle, and 5% Sauvignon Gris. This marks the first vintage with Sauvignon Gris in the blend. 13.4% ABV. Drink from 2027-2035."

Vinum: Expressiv, noch etwas von Holz geprägt, jedoch mit einem herrlichen Sauvignon-Parfüm, das florale und würzige Noten vereint; kräftiger, satter Gaumen, süsser Fruchtkern, top Säure, cremige Textur, hervorragende Länge. Opulenter als im Vorjahr, perfekt als Essbegleiter."
