Tasting notes
The second wine, the 2011 Echo de Lynch Bages displays an impressively saturated ruby/purple color along with a narrow framework and breadth of flavor in the mouth, but attractive black cherry and spice characteristics. Medium-bodied and pleasant, it is best drunk over the next 7-8 years.

Shows mineral and cassis character with hints of mint. Medium to full body, with fine tannins and a fresh finish. A little hollow in the mid-palate. Second wine of Lynch. jamessuckling.com
Very ripe and pure, with beautiful, caressing cassis and succulent plum flavors gliding over well-embedded structure. The long, iron-tinged finish is youthfully pure and very refined. James Molesworth, WineSpectator.com
