Chateau Lynch-Bages, Pauillac, France 2011 oos with a touch of minerality

with a touch of minerality that is very characteristic of Ferratus Sensaciones and comes from the special terroir of Pago de Santa Cruz

it is nevertheless a wine that is anything but banal

cool growing season

Aromatics of dried chamomile and alpine meadow herbs leap forth alongside wafts of ocean air

slightly reductive note of smoke swathes green pear notes on the nose of this wine

Chateau Lynch-Bages, Pauillac, France 2011 oos with a touch of mineralityA dense, chewy wine for the vintage, with plum, currant and blackberry character. Full body, polished tannic texture and a bright finish. Very pretty indeed. 93 Pts James Suckling
