Vintage
A classic mature vintage, the nose offers an attractive interplay between deep, buttery black fruits, some cedar and graphite notes, and a cool, minty Cabernet character. The wine has plenty of structure and backward, muscular personnality, but beautiful fruit on the attack and alluring purity and a nicely textured mouthfeel.
A full-bodied finish with plenty of wrapping sweetness completes this tightly-packed LynchBages.
