Château Lynsolence Saint Emilion 2003   BN#175868 Varietal Merlot Category Red Wine Region France : Bordeaux : St. Emilion Producer Château Lynsolence Alcohol 14.5% $89.99 On Sale $47.99 SKU37655 print cellar notes FREE SHIPPING AVAILABLE ON THIS WINE Go to the home page, click on “FREE SHIPPING ITEMS” Wine Advocate A tiny 6.5-acre vineyard planted in light gravel/sandy soils not far from Monbousquet and Valandraud, Lynsolence’s proprietor, Denis Baraud, is an up-and-coming star of St.-Emilion. Made from yields of 19 hectoliters per hectare, the 2003 (100% Merlot that achieved 14.5% alcohol) is an exuberant, flamboyant, modern-styled St.-Emilion displaying an inky/plum/purple color, a big, sweet, ostentatious bouquet (smoke, new oak, blackberries, cassis), low acidity, a dense, chewy personality, abundant fruit and glycerin, and plenty of flesh covering its structural skeleton. Sadly, there are only 525 cases of this gorgeous offering. It can be enjoyed now and over the next 12-14 years of life. Score: 92. —Robert Parker, April 2006. Wine Spectator Classy wine with currant, berry and light vanilla aromas. Full-bodied, with a dense yet refined texture and a medium finish. Tight and well done. Best after 2008. 525 cases made. Score: 90. —James Suckling, March 31, 2006.
