Blanc de Lynch-Bages was first released in 1990 and is historically one of the first white wines produced by a Grand Cru Classé in the Médoc. The wine is made from a blend of the three traditional white grape varieties of the Bordeaux appellation: Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and Muscadelle. About 75% of the juice is vinified in individually temperature-controlled barrels. As a result, the wines retain their fresh aromas throughout the process. The wines are then regularly stirred on the lees and aged for a period of six months before being bottled.

The Château Lynch-Bages Blanc de Lynch-Bages is wonderfully fresh and lively with aromas of grapefruit, lemon, green apple and white peach. Apricot too. The medium-bodied palate is equally intense, with enough acidity and bright, spicy notes, ending pleasantly savory with a long, lively finish. The Blanc de Lynch-Bages is a blend of 81% sauvignon, 11% semillon and 8% muscadelle.

The founder of Lynch-Bages is the Irish John Lynch who settled in Bordeaux in the 17th century. The village of Bages is home to the château. Since 1933, Lynch-Bages has been run by the Cazes family, an institution in the Médoc and a famous name in the world of wine. Third generation André Cazes was mayor of the municipality of Pauillac from 1947 to 1991. His son Jean-Michel has been running the family domain for several decades. His motto is; "great wine in search of the absolute". Given the appreciation for and status of Lynch-Bages, this 'absolute' has been reasonably achieved. Officially the château has the status of 5th Grand Cru Classé, but unofficially it is counted among the greatest of the Médoc. The other parts of the family business can also be described as very successful. Cordeillan-Bages, winery, hotel and best dining in the surrounding area and restaurant / caterer Le Chapon Fin in Bordeaux are good examples of this. Father André founded the Commanderie du Bontemps de Médoc in the late 1940s and Jean-Michel can call himself the founder of the École du Bordeaux. In short, an eventful family in the world of wine.
