Deep dark ruby red color. Complex and elegant nose dominated by fresh red fruit. Rich texture on the palate which shows a solid tannic backbone with plenty of woody and toasted notes. Its long and striking finish promises a superb longevity. This wine perfectly illustrates this ripe 2005 vintage.
"While still behind most of the Pauillac classified growths, Lynch Moussas is improving with each vintage as Philippe Casteja continues to upgrade this estate. The deep ruby/purple-tinged 2005 exhibits notes of blackberries, currants, and hints of smoke and toasty oak in the background. Medium-bodied, with good tannic structure, decent acidity, and a heady finish, it should drink well between 2012-2020."

The Wine Advocate
"Medium ruby. Cassis, chocolate, tar and menthol on the nose. A bit reduced in the mouth, but fat and full for this property, with sweet flavors of cassis and licorice. Not particularly nuanced or refined, but offers good breadth and ripeness. The tannins are dusty but not dry. I can't recall the last time an early sample from this chateau caught my attention like this one."
