Warm and friendly café-restaurant-bistro with terrace in Pauillac.

On the small square in the hamlet of Bages, the warm and friendly Café Lavinal serves traditional, tasty market cuisine, made with local, seasonal produce. You'll fall under the spell of its zinc and red 1930s-style banquettes, which give it the air of a bistro from yesteryear, attracting locals, tourists and winegrowers alike. In fine weather, its sunny terrace is appreciated for its view and location. The wine list features over 220 Bordeaux and international wines.

Adding to my wine education brought me to Bordeaux and dropped me, among other places, at Chateau Lynch-Bages for a spectacular tour of their new production facilities, a tasting and lots of historical details. Turns out that the current owners of the winery and vineyards surrounding it unknowingly also received the "town" immediately adjacent to the winery with their acquisition. Upon discovery, the family renovated or rebuilt all of the structures in the tiny town just steps from the winery to complement the business and provide housing and services for the employees who were willing to live within a two minute walk of their employer. Café Lavinal is THE restaurant in town. Make no mistake, this is not an afterthought to the wine operation. It is an upscale establishment brimming with the ambiance and atmosphere that befits the marriage of the region's passion for both wine and food. We took lunch al fresco on a warm, sunny afternoon under the shade of patio umbrellas. Ordering from the Lavinal lunch menu provided sophisticated three-course options that were as artfully prepared and presented as they were creative and satisfying. Not unexpectedly, ingredient quality reigns supreme and deft hands in the kitchen transformed them into delicacies that were worth sharing with everyone in our party, making sure our choices covered the widest range of flavors and textures possible. Service was impeccable and appropriately timely, keenly aware of our pace and responsive when we were ready to depart. I selected a very approachable white Bordeaux from the Chateau's second label and was reminded that it's not at all hard to pair food and wine in the region. Reservations are a must as it's literally the only restaurant in town. But it's worth planning. Definitely a surprise find.

Cadre superbe et service des jeunes filles très sympathique.
Belle presentation des plats, par contre, cuisine moyenne car poisson réchauffé et les sauces et mise en bouche n'ont aucune saveur. Alcool et vins hors de prix. Déçus ????
