What it tastes like

Pauillac de Lynch Bages 2020 is a refined, full-bodied Bordeaux with aromas of dark blackberry, cassis, and black cherry, layered with hints of cedar, tobacco, and a touch of graphite. On the palate, it's rich and structured with polished tannins, showcasing flavors of ripe fruit, leather, and earthy undertones. The wine has a good balance of freshness and depth, leading to a long, savory finish with a touch of spice.

The grapes

Cabernet Franc

Best known in Loire Valley, Bordeaux

Lighter and more fragrant than its famous offspring, Cabernet Sauvignon. Red berries, violets, graphite and a leafy freshness. In the Loire it shines on its own; in Bordeaux it adds perfume to the blend.

Cabernet Sauvignon

Best known in Bordeaux, Napa Valley, Coonawarra

The backbone of Bordeaux and the world's most famous red grape. Blackcurrant, cedar and firm tannins, with real ageing potential. Riper climates give plusher fruit; cooler ones more structure and leafy freshness.

Malbec

Best known in Mendoza, Cahors

Argentina's signature red. Dark plum, blackberry and violets, with a soft, velvety texture that makes it very easy to like, with high-altitude Mendoza vineyards keeping it fresh. In its original home, Cahors, it makes firmer, darker and more rustic wines.

Where it's from

Bordeaux

France

The world's most famous wine region. Left bank: Cabernet-led, structured, age-worthy. Right bank: Merlot-forward, plush, generous. The greatest châteaux set the global benchmark for red wine; the Entre-Deux-Mers makes brilliant dry whites.
