  James Suckling
  "Really fresh and vivid with sliced grapefruit, lemon, green apple and white peach. Apricot, too. Medium to full body with phenolic texture and a long, vivid finish. 70% sauvignon, 20% semillon and 10% muscadelle. Drink or hold."

  Weinwisser
  "70 % Sauvignon Blanc, 20 % Sémillion, 10 % Muscadelle, Alkohol 12.89 vol%, pH 3.35, 6 Monate in 50 % neuen Barriques auf der Feinhefe gelagert. Leuchtendes Gelb mit lindgrünen Reflexen. Betörendes Bouquet mit duftigem Weingartenpfirsich, Zitronengras und reifer Pampelmuse. Am saftigen Gaumen mit vibrierender Rasse, stützender Mineralik und mittlerem Körper. Im aromatischen Finale Mandarinenzesten, Kräutersulz und Wachsnoten."

  Decanter
  "Less of the citrus flavours of recent vintages and more apricot and nectarine stone fruits, taking its cue from Sémillon and Muscadelle. Relaxed and effortless while still maintaining both lift and tension, with a saline wet stone lick on the finish. I tasted the 2019 on the same day, as it had just been bottled, and the 2020 is less of a classic Lynch Bages Blanc, but still utterly delicious, with clear weight and impression through the mid palate. 3.35pH. 50% new oak for six months. Fermentation below 20°C. A yield of 40hl/ha. Drinking Window 2022 - 2032"

  The Wine Advocate
  "Composed of 70% Sauvignon Blanc, 20% Sémillon and 10% Muscadelle, the 2020 Blanc de Lynch-Bages springs from the glass with vivacious notes of white peaches, fresh pineapple and pink grapefruit, plus touches of honeysuckle and mandarin peel. The medium-bodied palate is equally intense, featuring just enough acidity and bright, zesty sparks, finishing pleasantly savory."

  Wine Spectator
  " Features a zip of fleur de sel that runs from start to finish, adding extra cut and drive to an enticing set of lemon peel and gooseberry notes. Shows a subtle pith accent that adds length to the finish. Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and Muscadelle. Drink now through 2024."
