An up and coming St.-Emilion estate, Lynsolence is a 625-case cuvee produced from 100% Merlot. The 2001 exhibits a dark ruby/purple color as well as a smoky, oaky perfume revealing scents of candied black currants and cherries. Spicy, fleshy, elegant, pure, and substantially flavored, it can be enjoyed over the next 5-8 years.
