Michel Lynch 2007 Réserve White (Graves)

Price $20

The Cazes family, which owns the Michel Lynch brand (as well as Château Lynch-Bages), also has vineyards in the Graves, and this well-rounded, spice- and pear-flavored wine draws on good vineyard contacts in that region. There is toast, along with citrus acidity and a fine, fruity finish. — R.V. (7/1/2009)

Michel Lynch 1998 Merlot

Price $9
