Wine Spectator: A Live Chat With Château Lynch Bages’ Jean-Charles Cazes

In normal circumstances, senior editor James Molesworth would be tasting Bordeaux’s 2019 barrel samples this time of year. But while formal tastings have been canceled and the global economy remains uncertain, Bordeaux’s 2019 en primeur campaign is moving forward at blistering speed.

During the June 17 edition of Straight Talk with Wine Spectator, an Instagram Live series sponsored by Wine Access, Château Lynch Bages owner Jean-Charles Cazes explained why the campaign has moved forward, discussed pricing and talked about plans for times he hopes will be better.

Watch the full episode with Jean-Charles Cazes on Wine Spectator’s IGTV channel and tune in to @wine_spectator on Instagram to catch Straight Talk with Wine Spectator, Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7 p.m. ET. This week’s guests include Maison Louis Jadot president Pierre-Henry Gagey today at 1pm; and Diana Snowden Seysses, winemaker at Snowden Vineyards and Domaine Dujac, tomorrow at 7pm.—Shawn
