Sémillon's influence shows immediately. Richer texture and weight than typical Pauillac blanc. White peach, lime zest and crushed oyster shell create compelling layers. The mineral backbone keeps everything precise despite the generous fruit. An impressive departure from this red wine specialist.

Lynch-Bages
→Lynch-Bages is a Fifth Growth Pauillac that has long punched well above its classification. The Cazes family built its reputation on plush, generous Cabernet Sauvignon-led reds that rival many a Second Growth in breadth and consistency.
