Château Lynch-Bages 2013 Pauillac (75cl)

Château Lynch-Bages 2013 is a Pauillac red from Bordeaux, built mainly on Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The 2013 vintage is generally seen as a lighter, earlier-drinking Bordeaux vintage. It works well with grilled or roasted meat, or as a recognisable Bordeaux name on a gift table. Pauillac reds like this typically show blackcurrant and cedar notes with firm, structured tannins, usually softening with an hour or two of air or a proper decant.
