Château Lynch-Bages

Situated at the gates of Pauillac, overlooking the Gironde estuary from the crest of one of the most beautiful gravel ridges of the commune, the vineyards lie on gravelly slopes situated on the south and south west extremities of the town. The cellars and other buildings of the chateau are about 500 yards from Pauillac, and are clearly visible from the "route du vin".

Lynch-Bages takes a part of its name from the very ancient hamlet of Bages. The old "Domaine de Bages" seems to have existed within the same boundaries since the 16th century (the oldest descriptive documents conserved today date back to the beginning of the 18th century). It belonged for exactly three quarters of a century (1749 - 1824) to the Lynch family.
