Bordeaux Red

"A luxuriant Lalande-de-Pomerol with immense purity toward the finish. This delightful, slightly hedonistic wine from the Durantou stable."

Awarded 5th Growth status in the 1855 classification. More Cabernet Sauvignon in this blend, making it a bolder, more serious wine than in previous decades.

This legendary Graves estate was lauded by Samuel Pepys in 1663, and the only Graves estate included in the 1855 classification, awarded the top First Growth status. The 2018 was awarded 100 points by RobertParker.com

"99 Points. This is so, so delicious and, due to the ripeness of tannins, approachable now. It will be difficult to keep your mitts off it for a good 5-7 years,.”--Lisa Perrotti-Brown, RobertParker.com Awarded First Growth status in 1973.

Lynch- Bages has been far exceeding its 5th Growth status for over a half-century.  All keen observers of Bordeaux realize that if there were to be a new classification, Lynch-Bages would surely rank as a Second-Growth.
