The Story

The wines of LYNCH MOUSSAS are today well known for their deep and dark colour, their red-fruity nose.

Written Notes

Dark purple colour with violet hue and black core. Noble nose with aroma reminiscent of blackberries, blueberries and mulberries, complemented by fresh blackcurrants and hints of blackcurrant spurs. Noble toasting with hints of mocha and cocoa in the background. On the palate full-bodied with velvety tannins, juicy fruit and elegant spiciness. A Lynch-Moussas with freshness and excellent length.

Lynch Moussas CC - this property has vastly improved a lot in recent vintages, and 2020 confirms that. Intense blackcurrants and grilled bacon on the nose, dark chocolate, polished, luscious on the palate with grained tannin. Elegant with finesse. Long lingering finish. A terrific effort here! 93+p.
