The 2019 Lynsolence is a gorgeous, large-scaled Saint-Émilion endowed with tremendous body, richness and resonance. Inky dark fruit, crème de cassis, licorice, spice and chocolate are all dialed up a few notches. This voluptuous, opulent Saint-Émilion has so much to offer. Tasted two times.

The 2019 Lynsolence is terrific and shows the freshness and purity of the vintage. Black cherries, lead pencil, baking spices, and dried flowers all define the nose, and it's already complex and nuanced. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it has plenty of classic Saint-Emilion chalky minerality, terrific balance, and just a real sense of class and purity. It needs 4-5 years of bottle age (or a healthy decant). It's going to have two decades of longevity.

Perfumed nose of spiced cherries, prunes, black olives, nutmeg, truffles and potpourri. It’s full-bodied with firm, chewy tannins. Firm, rich, tannic and compact. Better from 2026.
