This winery boasts a rich history and a reputation for crafting exceptional wines that capture the essence of the Bordeaux terroir. With a lineage rooted in innovation and distinction, Château Lynch-Bages has secured its position as a notable name in the world of wine.

Lynch Bages has been under the same ownership since before the Second World War, that of the Cazes family, with Lynch under the stewardship of Jean-Michel Cazes since 1973 who wasted absolutely no time in modernising everything at the chateau having been an engineer in Paris.

Since its inception, Château Lynch-Bages has embodied Bordeaux's finest attributes. The property's story dates back to the late 1700s and has seen the stewardship of successive generations. The name "Lynch-Bages" is a tribute to the Lynch family, who acquired the estate, and "Bages," the village where it resides.

In the mid-20th century, Jean-Michel Cazes played a pivotal role in shaping Lynch-Bages into a modern powerhouse. His daring approach and commitment to quality revitalised the estate, creating wines that resonate with the true character of Pauillac.
