Developed as an ‘echo’ of the estates first wine, this successfully embraces the flavour, aroma and finish characteristic of the wines of Pauillac. Rounded and balanced, with a blossoming nose and a juicy, accessible palate, this will be ready for drinking earlier than its big brother. 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc. Elevage in 1 year old barrels.
“Representing 25 to 40% of the harvest depending on the vintages, “Echo” is chiefly made from the property’s youngest vines. Its final blend often differs from that of Lynch-Bages by a slightly higher proportion of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. It is characterised by its soft tannins, a light and smooth oakiness, a silky texture in the mouth and a nice complexity.”
