Marks and reviews
Description
The character and balance of a Pauillac Second Wine
The estate
Located at the gates of Pauillac, Château Lynch-Bages is an estate that has left its mark on the history of the Médoc. Although the terroir of Bages has been known since the 16th century, it was not until the 18th century that it gained renown. Headed by the son of an Irish citizen by the name of Thomas Lynch, Bages was recognised at the Universal Exhibition in Paris. Acquired by the J-M Cazes family on the eve of the Second World War, Château Lynch-Bages is one of the finest references in the Pauillac appellation.
The vineyard
Château Lynch-Bages is a Pauillac wine produced from a 105-hectare vineyard planted with Garonne gravel. The vineyard is divided into plots using satellite technology to preserve the estate's genetic heritage. The homogeneous geology of the terroir ensures a good water supply for the vines in an area with a moderate climate.
The wine
Écho de Lynch-Bages is the Second Wine from this prestigious Pauillac Grand Cru Classé, Lynch-Bages.
The vintage
This year was marked by extreme weather conditions, from a cold winter to a hot, dry summer. However, the vines were able to adapt and produce an exceptional vintage. The vegetative cycle was precocious throughout the year. The grapes obtained are at an optimum level of ripeness.
Winemaking and ageing
Hand-picked, sorted in the vineyard and on a table. The wine is aged for 14 months in new barrels and in one-wine barrels.
Blend
Écho de Lynch-Bages 2022 is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (64%), Merlot (31%) and Cabernet Franc (5%).
