"66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot, 3% Cabernet Franc. Inky dark and cassisy on the nose. The palate is so intense, the rich dark berry fruit framed by almost brutal (but fine), supremely age-worthy tannins. The most powerful rendition of Lynch Bages I can recall, in which the dials are all set to eleven. 14.2% abv.
