Neal Martin

The 2017 Echo de Lynch Bages, aged in one-year old barrels for 12 months, has a light blackberry and earthy bouquet, a little cedar tucked in underneath, perhaps not quite as precise as the 2016 last year. The palate is medium-bodied with light and quite supple tannin, smooth and harmonious in the mouth, if just a tad short towards the finish. 86-88 points

Julia Harding

74% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc. 12 months in one-year-old barrels. TA (sulphuric) 3.55 g/l, pH 3.69, IPT 63. Black core, purple rim. Intense, pure cassis on the nose – essence of Cabernet. Super-supple, extreme finesse in the tannins and really elegant while still having lots of dark fruit. Complete, refined, and fruity. Fine, dark-fruited finish. 16.5 points
