Château Lynch-Moussas 2013, Pauillac

Château Lynch-Moussas dates back to 1850 and was given prestigious Cru status in the legendary 1855 Bordeaux classification. But things really picked up, in 1969, when it was bought by the owner of Château Batailley. A state-of-the-art winery renovation and extensive replanting soon took place. In the years since, the estate has consistently produced fantastic claret. This is a bold and fruity Pauillac, with flavours of blackcurrant, blackberry, oak, tobacco and cedar. As it’s now deliciously mature, it has well-integrated tannins which won’t overpower lamb.
