Lynch Moussas Pauillac 2019
94 Points! This is a solid Pauillac with a medium to full body and chewy tannins that are polished and energetic . Plenty of blackcurrant, lemon and wet-earth character. A little tight at the end. Needs at least three or four years of bottle age to open. Will age very nicely. - James Suckling, jamessuckling.com
94 Points! The 2019 Lynch-Moussas is a wild, potent wine. Dark red cherry, iron, smoke, espresso, licorice, leather and mint convey intensity and virile power. The 2019 is deep and fleshy, at times a bit rustic too, but long on character. I would give it a few years in bottle first. , Vinous Media
92 Points! Smoked cedar oak and espresso aromatics that accompany and almost threaten the rich damson fruits. Needs a few years to soften further and allow the fruit to breathe, but this has impact and personality. This vintage marks the 100th anniversary under the Castéja family, who arrived at the property in 1919, and comes with a special red label (and engravings on the bottle that will remain even when the label goes back to yellow). Tasted twice. - Jane Anson
92 Points! The 2019 Lynch-Moussas, in an embossed bottle to celebrate a century of ownership by the Castèja family, has an understated bouquet of blackberry, briar, tobacco and touches of pencil shaving, and still that touch of mint. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins, good backbone, firm grip and much more substance on the finish compared to previous vintages, that tincture of Earl Grey coming through with time. This is an excellent, classically styled Pauillac., Vinous Media
