Drinking amazingly well. Aromas of plum, violet blackcurrant and tobacco blossom out of the glass. Flavors are textbook elegant, aged Bordeaux, with abundant fruit (red morphing to black plum), tobacco, some light library/leather sofa development, and some largely integrated oak. Juicy acidity, resolved tannins and maybe just a hint of horse saddle. Maybe more Margaux than Pauillac if one were guessing. Enough body to carry through a satisfying finish, but svelte by today’s standards. Terrific value, as I paid $42 a couple years ago.

Lynch Moussas is a great value for money Pauillac! It is so close to the bigger labels, imo it doesn’t account for the difference in price: bell pepper, cherry, tobacco, prune, soft oak, leather, medium plus body, great balance and finish, fresh for 22 years of age.

Elegant, fein, dezente Frucht. Kein Kraftprotz
