Type: Red Wine.
Vintage: 2017
Grapes: 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Merlot.
Origin: Pauillac, Bordeaux, France.
Description: En 1919, Jean Castéja, propriétaire des Châteaux Duhart-Milon, 4e Grand Cru Classé à Pauillac, Pichon-Longueville Baron, 2nd Grand Cru Classé à Pauillac, et Doisy-Védrines, 2nd Grand Cru Classé de Sauternes et Barsac, fait entrer le Château Lynch-Moussas dans le patrimoine de la famille Castéja.
Tasting notes: It has a very controlled bouquet at first with tightly wound raspberry and wild strawberry fruit, the oak nicely integrated and some lovely undergrowth aromas surfacing with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, the acidity well judged, leading to a spice-tinged finish that lingers long in the mouth.
Pairing: The wine of Pauillac is perfect when paired with rare, grilled beef. Pauillac also makes a great match with most roasted, braised, or grilled meats like veal, pork, chicken, and game as well as dishes with mushroom or earthy, truffle flavors.
Alcohol content: 13.5%.
