A layered and juicy red with blackberry and wet-earth character. Full-bodied, rich and juicy. Well done for second wine of Lynch.

The second wine is the 2017 Echo de Lynch Bages. It's a soft, forward, effort that has solid notes of cherry and currant fruits intermixed with plenty of leafy herbs and lavender. With supple, polished tannin, notable purity and plenty of length, it's a charmer that's going to drink nicely in its youth yet keep for a decade or more.
