2022, Château Lynch-Moussas, PAUILLAC, 5ème Grand Cru ClasséBordeaux Blend: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot Cool blue fruits on the nose, a little shy at this point. Intensely fruited, really rich and ripe but clean and clear, giving a depth of ripe blackcurrants but juicy, fresh and alive. Almost sharp, its intense with bite to the fruit and such lean tannins that give a firm but light grip to the mouth. I like the attack, its bold and confident but refined at the same time. Good fruit profile, balancing acidity

Pale gold in colour

Deep and intense

New director Nicolas Audebert had an amazing start to his career at Canon

for making some of Burgundy's finest wines

High acidity but lovely and cool all the way through

Yet it remains in balance with finesse

extremely focused to the point of overwhelming the sense

youthful style of white wine

spice and blood orange are beautifully delineated
