Description
Pauillac Chateau Lynch-Bages 2003
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon 70%, Merlot 24%, Cabernet Franc 4% and Petit Verdot 2%
2003 was one of the hottest vintages of the last hundred years, yet in the Bordeaux god area, some rains that occurred in July led the grapes to have a correct maturation, without excessive stress for the vines. Among the different areas of Bordeaux the Medoc, being next to the Gironde, and having the vineyards very close to the river, has produced excellent wines, naturally concentrated and beautifully complex.
This is why Lynch-Bages 2003 is complex, seductive and able to excite for the great definition of perfumes, like the substance on the palate.
Pauillac Chateau Lynch-Bages 2003
Embedded between the Saint Estéphe appellations, to the north and Saint Julien to the south, Puillac is one of the most important denominations of all Bordeaux. The vines in the Médoc are planted on a small portion of land 80 km long and 5 to 10 km wide. The vineyards are next to the river, so as to take advantage of both the natural irrigation of the land, as well as the beneficial effects on the climate.
