Tasting notes
The 2025 Echo de Lynch-Bages, matured in 20% new oak, has a little more rondeur and opulence compared with the Haut-Batailley, emanating from that 34% Merlot. The palate is quite full and voluminous in the mouth, grippy with slightly chalky tannins enveloped in black plum and blackcurrant fruit. It segues into a quite peppery finish that tingles on the aftertaste. Give it a couple of years in bottle.

A classic, chewy Pauillac that has plenty of personality, the 2025 Echo De Lynch-Bages reveals black currants, smoky tobacco, scorched earth, and graphite on the nose. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it's rich, concentrated, and has the classic Lynch-Bages power and richness.
Black cherries, plums, licorice, and flowers set up the perfume. The medium-bodied wine is bright, and fresh wine, with a juicy, fruity, already easy-to-drink finish. This is a super baby Lynch Bages! The wine is a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot, and 1% Cabernet Franc. Drink from 2028-2040.
A solid wine with firm and racy tannins, with dark berries, cherries and black currants. Medium-bodied with creamy tannins and an intense finish. 65% cabernet sauvignon, 34% merlot and 1% cabernet franc.
