Château Lynch-Moussas 2018

The opulence and structure of a red grand vin from Pauillac

A Grand Cru Classé of Pauillac, located on the left bank of Bordeaux, Château Lynch-Moussas has produced a brilliant 2018 vintage.

The 2018 vintage required plenty of work in the vineyard. The strong climatic contrasts of the year subjected the vineyard to a rainy spring, which brought strong mildew pressure. A beautiful summer finally arrived in July, shining on until October. The grape harvest began on September 18th and ended on October 10^th, yielding magnificent fruit, with each grape having reached perfect ripeness.

A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (72%) and Merlot (28%), the Château Lynch-Moussas 2018 offers the expression of a great Pauillac red wine. At the tasting, the wine presents an intensely deep colour, while the aromatic bouquet is enhanced by pure fruit. The palate is well-rounded with great amplitude and a structure defined by perfectly integrated and very present tannins. This wine lingers long at the end of the palate. A great Pauillac red wine from an exceptional vintage.
