Delicious, with plum, spice and vanilla character. Medium-bodied, with silky tannins and a fresh fruit finish. Drink now through 2004. James Suckling,Wine Spectator 2000.

About the producer

The Cazes family – owners of Lynch-Bages – added this Saint-Estèphe Cru Bourgeois estate to their portfolio in 1940, just one year after they purchased Lynch-Bages. The property comprises 32 hectares of vines in the north of the appellation, close to the village of Pez.
