The name Lynch-Moussas comes from the division of the Count Lynch's property into Lynch-Moussas and Lynch-Bages in the 19th century, Moussas being the location of a large part of the vineyard. The Castéja family, owners of Château Lynch-Moussas since the 16th century in Pauillac, acquired this château at the beginning of the 20th century. It was not until 1970 that Emile Casteja inherited it and took over its management. He immediately set about restoring the property's influence. Since 2001, his son, Philippe Casteja, has taken over the reins of the properties on the left bank. The year 2001 saw the birth of the Château's second wine, Les Hauts de Lynch-Moussas. Château Lynch-Moussas is one of the only family properties to be distributed by the Bordeaux market.
