Chateau Lynch-Moussas

Deep, dark ruby-garnet, opaque centre, violet highlights, a delicate lightening at the rim. Forest honey, marmalade, very ripe black berry fruit, almost tarry notes. On the palate, the wine proves to be quite grainy, very dense, slightly dry in tannin but hardly vegetal; it possesses a positive astringency and resolves juicily on the finish. A wine with a very traditional structure, slightly rough, with well-matured, artisanal tannins. (U.S.)

Flowers, black with red currants, cedar, and tobacco fill the nose. The wine is medium-bodied, refined, fresh, and loaded with chalky blackberries, and currants from start to finish. The wine will age for 2 or more decades with ease. The wine blends 74% Cabernet Sauvignon with 26% Merlot. Drink from 2028-2050.
