Tasting notes
Pale ruby red, light in structure, this is light raspberry, gentle tobacco and raspberry spice, ready to drink, unfussy. There is less Pauillac signature here than you will find in its clssified sibling Batailley, this is one to drink now.

Tasted blind. Dark ruby. Luscious, round and a tad fragile. Very lively and transparent as opposed to dense. Already approachable. (JR)
The 2005 Lynch-Moussas is a supple, fruit-driven wine from the Castéja family. It shows well, with ripe tannin, some blackcurrants, spice and earth. This medium-bodied wine should drink well for another 15 or more years.
