Robert Parker Wine Advocate
Another strong effort produced under the administration of Jean-Charles Cazes (the son of Jean-Michel Cazes, who spent decades building Lynch Bages into one of the most popular Bordeaux estates), the 2011 boasts an inky/purple hue in addition to copious aromas of black currants, incense, forest floor and ink. Deep, rich, medium to full-bodied and layered with supple tannins as well as the vintage's freshness and vibrancy, it should age easily for 20 years.
James Suckling
A dense, chewy wine for the vintage, with plum, currant and blackberry character. Full body, polished tannic texture and a bright finish. Very pretty indeed. This needs time to soften.
Druvor
67% cabernet sauvignon, 25% merlot, 5% petit verdot & 3% cabernet franc.
Tasting note
’Sweet blackcurrant fruit on the nose, softly jammy and expressive. You can really feel the ripeness here, grapes got full maturity and this is plush, mouthfilling and plump with chewy tannins - more opulent and perfumed than others also with more power and body. Tannins are mouthfilling and you get the stone minerality and the Cabernet freshness that really takes over giving this a sense of tension and grip. A really characterful and expressive Pauillac where the tannins and acidity perfectly compliment each other with the muscular and concentrated fruit also giving a multi-faceted dimension. 3% Cabernet Sauvignon completes the blend. 3.72pH. Ageing 75% new barrels.’

Vänstra stranden | Médoc & Péssac-Léognan
91 poäng
Torrt och varmt tidigt, sedan svalt och blött senare. Skördeuttagen ner på grund av småbär. Färsk frukt och ljus syra är framträdande; tanniner är sträva men mogna, med lägre alkoholhalter.
Högra stranden | Pomerol & Saint-Emilion
91 poäng
Pomeroler i allmänhet färska och mogna; St.-Emilion Cabernet Franc utmärkte sig och stödde Merlot. Gedigen årgång som borde åldras fint, som 2001 och 2004.
