Blanc de Lynch Bages, 2025
Lynch Blanc 2025 was bottled in April 2026 after a very short élevage compared to its peers. As usual it has a yellow colour with a green hue. Bright and fresh citrus on the nose; very high-toned. Green apple, gooseberry, lemon pith and greengage. Lots of primal citrus here but white pepper, toasted almond and a little peach stone and orange blossom add depth and resonance to the finish. Sauvignon fans will love this interpretation of the category. 60% Sauvignon Blanc, 24% Sémillon, 11% Muscadelle, 5% Sauvignon Gris.
critic reviews
The 2025 Blanc de Lynch-Bages had already been bottled, as usual. It has a vibrant nose with crisp gooseberry and Granny Smith scents, and just a touch of apricot in the background. The palate is well balanced, with a fine bead of acidity, bright and lively, and a malic, slightly herbaceous finish. Fine.
Salted crackers, preserved lemons, patisserie notes, love the white peach and pear flesh, this is an exceptional Blanc de Lynch Bages in a vintage that had challenges for the whites after a hot dry summer. 25hl/ha yield. 3.20 pH. Harvest August 26 to September 4. 50% new oak, already bottled.
Notes of clove, flowers, confit citrus and spices preface the 2025 Blanc de Lynch-Bages, a medium- to full-bodied, rich and layered wine built around a lively core of fruit, with delicate acidity through the mid-palate and a long, saline finish. Bottled just 10 days prior to tasting, it remains particularly expressive at this early stage. It's a blend of 60% Sauvignon Blanc, 24% Sémillon, 11% Muscadelle and 5% Sauvignon Gris, matured in 50% new oak.
