Tasting note

品飲筆記：酒體明亮，先是檸檬、葡萄柚與白桃的清新果香，再帶出一抹金銀花、萊姆花的花香，口中有細緻的粉砂與海鹽感，酸度鮮明有彈性，結尾礦物感持久。生產背景：靚次伯自1990年開始釀造這款白酒，是名莊少有的白色代表作，由JM Cazes家族掌舵，重視田間分選與釀造細節。釀造工藝：大約七成汁液在可控溫度的法國橡木桶中發酵，並經常進行瓶泥攪拌（sur‑lie），以保留清新香氣並帶來豐富口感，整體橡木使用輕柔、不壓果。葡萄園與土壤：葡萄來自加龍河砾石地塊，土壤賦予酒體礦質與結構。人工採收並在園內分級篩選，酒齡與保存期佳。醒酒建議：短暫醒約30分鐘即可讓香氣更開放；搭配海鮮、烤魚或體重感奶酪特別合拍。

Tasting note: Bright and energetic on the nose with grapefruit, lemon curd and white peach lifted by honeysuckle and lime blossom; delicate chalk and saline notes give a crystalline edge. On the palate it is medium to medium‑full, driven by racy acidity and citrus tension, finishing chalky and persistent. Producer notes: Blanc de Lynch‑Bages was first released in 1990 and is one of the earlier white bottlings from a Médoc Grand Cru Classé. Produced by the Famille J.M. Cazes, the wine showcases the estate’s commitment to precision and freshness in white winemaking. Winemaking: Around 75% of the juice is fermented in individually temperature‑controlled French oak barrels. The wine is regularly stirred on the fine lees and aged for roughly six months, a strategy that preserves fresh aromas while adding a subtle creamy texture and complexity. Light new oak influence keeps the oak presence discreet. Vineyard notes: Fruit comes from Garonne gravel soils that lend minerality and a stony backbone. Hand‑harvested and sorted in the vineyard to ensure quality of the grapes. Drinking window: 2023–2035. Serving: Serve well chilled but not ice cold; brief decant (about 30 minutes) will open aromas and soften texture.

Winery

靚次伯（Château Lynch‑Bages）為著名的Grand Cru Classé 酒莊，現由JM Cazes家族經營。除了聲名遠播的紅酒，酒莊在1990年起推出白酒代表作，延續精細的田間管理與現代化釀造。葡萄園多坐落於加龍河砾石地，人工採收與嚴格分級，酒窖採用分桶控溫發酵與桶中瓶泥攪拌，讓白酒保有清新果香同時兼具質地與陳年潛力。

Château Lynch‑Bages is a Grand Cru Classé estate run by the Famille J.M. Cazes. While best known for its red wines from Pauillac, the domaine has long produced an elegant white cuvée, first released in 1990. The estate combines meticulous vineyard work on Garonne gravel soils with modern cellar practices: careful sorting at harvest, portioned barrel fermentation and attentive lees ageing to craft whites that balance freshness, texture and ageing potential.
