Decanter: Clean fragrance on the nose, black fruit and wild purple flowers with some creamy chocolate and vanilla touches. Round and filling, but less fleshy than Les Hauts, more taught and streamlined with focus and bite to the Cab strawberry and black currant fruit - pure and precise - with a lick of liquorice, graphite, cedar, tobacco, cigar, salt, flint and clove spice. Serious but with charm. Mint, freshness, a real Pauillac wine with strength but not too muscular."

James Suckling: This is structured, medium- to full-bodied and chewy, with balanced dark fruit that’s grainy but appealing. Incisive and generous, with pretty and subtle al dente currants. A blend of 77% cabernet sauvignon and 33% merlot."

Jane Anson: A good vintage for Lynch Moussas, studded through with cloves, white pepper, sage, cassis, plenty of Pauillac character, should be ready to go in 5 to 6 years rather than the classic 10 for this appellation. 56% new oak, Axel Marchal and Valerie Lavigne consultants."

Falstaff: Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Waldhonig, Latwerge, hochreife schwarzbeerige Frucht, nachgerade teerige Noten. Im Mund erweist sich der Wein als ziemlich körnig, sehr dicht, leicht trocken im Tannin, aber kaum vegetal, er besitzt eine positive Adstringenz und löst im Abgang saftig auf. Ein Wein mit einer sehr traditionellen Struktur, leicht rappig, handwerkliches Tannin guter Reife."

The Wine Cellar Insider: Currants, flowers, forest leaves, and tobacco are already showing in the nose. The medium-bodied palate is sweet, vibrant, and fruity, leaving a touch of creaminess in the bright, lively, blackberry and currant-packed finish. The refreshing touch of mint leaf that comes in at the end adds a nice complexity. The wine blends 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, with 23% Merlot.13.5% ABV. Drink from 2030-2050."

Vinum: Komplexe Nase, feinfruchtig, rotbeerig, Kirschen, zarte Blüten, ein Hauch Sahne; am Gaumen verführerisch, charmant, weiche, leicht cremige Textur, markante Tannine, fein mit der Frucht verwoben; im Abgang mit delikater Frucht und sehr schöner Länge. Wird in jeder Phase Spass machen."
