The Echo by Lynch-Bages has been named Echo because it receives the same attention as its big brother and process is also a copy (an Echo) from the vine to the cellar. It has the taste, smell and characteristic length of the Pauillacs. It is also endowed with roundness and suppleness making this wine earlier and more accessible than its big brother. The Echo has attractive dark berries with sweet spicy oak on the nose leading to a smooth palate with soft tannins and a fresh, approachable finish. Another big difference is the price.
The Echo Lynch Bages is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot. This wine has matured in 2nd year Barrique. In the glass it has a dark ruby red color with a purple tinge. The 2018 Echo de Lynch Bages emerges seductively from the glass with fragrant notes of candied violets, rose hips and fragrant earth over a core of blackberries, black currants and chocolate with some mineral notes. On the palate, the wine is full, rich, wonderfully concentrated and good structured, it has a firm backbone of firm, grainy tannins and good freshness with a long finish. From the wonderful year 2020.
