Lynch-Bages Echo de Lynch Bages 2021
Red
Pauillac, France
7.1
WineSaint
Dense and brooding, with cassis and graphite building slowly on the palate. The vintage's restraint shows clearly. This lacks the usual exuberance but compensates with impressive mineral depth. Firm tannins need time to integrate, though the wine's concentrated core suggests good aging potential.

Lynch-Bages
→Lynch-Bages is a Fifth Growth Pauillac that has long punched well above its classification. The Cazes family built its reputation on plush, generous Cabernet Sauvignon-led reds that rival many a Second Growth in breadth and consistency.
