Château Musar

Gaston Hochar Grand Cru Red Blend 2017

Beautiful color of dark ruby with a very wide reddish/ brick rim.

Very aromatic nose with wild flowers, blueberries, plums, cherries, red currants, light oak, tobacco leaf, light earth, dark chocolates, black tea, spices, herbs, black pepper and light green vegetables.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with black plums, cooked cherries, sugared raspberries, spices, oak, light licorice, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, light earth and peppercorn.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 7-year-old red blend from Lebanon is still extremely young, but already very enjoyable, even by itself as a sipping wine. Elegant and interesting.

Soft and smooth, with a nice mouthfeel. Nicely balanced and very complex. Loved the nose here.

This is not a 'pop and pour' kind of wine, as you have to let it open up for a long time.

Not my first time having Chateau Musar, but this is definitely the youngest I've ever tried. I gave it 4 hours in the decanter.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 25 to 30 years, and shows potential to become a 94+ point wine.

Feels like a good quality old world wine, maybe like a Châteauneuf-du-Pape. So interesting.

Good by itself as a sipping wine and paired nicely with the Spanish Jamon.

A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carignan and Cinsault. Fermented for 6 months in concrete vats, and then aged in French oak barrels for 12 months. After that, the varietals are blended together and aged for an additional year in concrete vats. Released only after 7 years from Harvest. Unfiltered and unfined.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

91 points.

$75.

Cuvée des Generations Gaston Philippe Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2012

A legacy CdP from the collection. Haven’t had in many years - with the age it’s certainly nice. Though, quite full bodied and somehow still somewhat austere, and with not enough acid to really keep it all refined. Nice enough with skirt steak on the grill. — a month ago

A notch better than I expected. The age has been good, as is some time with air in the glass. Pretty classic non-Chablis entry level white burg, in a nice way. Great acid core with good body and mouthfeel. — 6 months ago
