Tasting notes
Spice, currant and tobacco aromas follow through to a medium body, firm tannins and a savory finish. A little herbal, but holding on nicely. Drink now.

Tasted at the château, the 2006 Les Hauts de Lynch Moussas felt a little past its peak on the nose, which felt as if it was flagging a little. The palate is chewy on the entry with rustic tannin, holding up reasonably well after ten years, with a finish that actually shows more staying-power than the aromatics. Tasted April 2016.
