Château Lynch-Bages, 5e cru classé Pauillac 2023 En Primeur - Case of 6
Inevitably this wine is one of the more showy and extracted of the Left Bank, very much the Cazes style. We detected more restraint however, compared with the blockbusters of recent hot vintages, and the wine is impressive and not over-done (for us). The balance of dark, ripe black fruit with chunky tannins gives depth of flavour, a succulence but the feel and shape is quite fluid, pure fruit dominating what is a dynamic wine. It is big and bold but works well and should live mid-to long-term.
