Description:
This wine is always a popular choice during En Primeur and we expect demand to be just as strong as ever this year – especially given the attractive price of €320 per case 12 x 75cl in bond, making it the lowest price compared with any other vintage of Echo Lynch.
A perennial overachiever, Lynch Bages has made a name for itself over the decades for not just being one of the great producers of Bordeaux, but also of representing excellent value. Owned by the same family – the Cazes – since the 1930s, Lynch’s reputation was initially built up by Jean-Charles Cazes, a real pioneer in Bordeaux during the 1950s and 1960s. He was the first winemaker in Bordeaux at that time to take the risk of picking later, becoming instrumental in steering Bordeaux towards a richer, riper style.
Tasting Notes:
"The 2024 Echo de Lynch-Bages offers up aromas of dark berries and rich, toasty oak. Medium-bodied, robust and tannic, it's a chunky, structured wine that will certainly require some patience."
William Kelley, April 2025, RobertParker.com
"The 2024 Echo de Lynch-Bages, aged in 20% new oak and representing around one-third of the crop, showed a lot of reduction on the nose when I tasted it at the château, as well as a little greenness. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, a dash of black pepper and a light marine note towards the finish. To be honest, there's a large gap between this and the Grand Vin in this vintage."
Neal Martin, April 2025, Vinous.com
"The 2024 Echo de Lynch-Bages is plush, supple and seductive, all the qualities of the Grand Vin, on a naturally smaller scale. Silky contours wrap around a core of dark red plum fruit, mocha, spice, new leather and cedar. This is a terrific Echo that will drink well right out of the gate."
Antonio Galloni, April 2025, Vinous.com
"Lovely depth and concentration, love the precision and uplift, fragrant and leafy, the juice brings a sense of bounce and pleasure to the dark fruits. 20% new oak. 3.62 pH."
