We had the 2013 Vintage on 6/28-29/25. Nice bouquet black fruit and cedar. The palate had blackberry, plum, tobacco, leather and spice. Medium bodied, terroir driven. Old World and very good — 12 days ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple hours. The 2023 RTW Lodi pours a bright ruby color with a transparent core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of tart and ripe mixed fruits: blackberries, blueberries, strawberry, red rope licorice, flowers, dried green herbs, sandalwood and dry stony earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. Best wine from Lodi. Incredible versatility. It just gets better and better. Bravo! Drink now through 2033+. — 3 months ago

Looks like the last review of this wine was 11 years ago. Quite highly rated . Have to say it still earns that rating in my opinion. 19 years young. Still wonderful harmony and a fulfill lusciousness in the mouth.  — 2 months ago

Reddish in color with a cloudy rim.

On the nose fresh red fruits with light oak and chocolates.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity and fat legs.

Dry on the palate with raspberries, cherries, red plums, currants, light wood, spices, earth, light vegetables, coffee, bitter herbs and black pepper.

Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a tasty Pinot Noir from Oregon. Feels like an old world Pinot Noir.

Still very young and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Showing good potential at this point.

This Single Vineyard Pinot Noir is good right out of the bottle, and better after some air time.

12.9% alcohol by volume.

89 points.

$70. — 4 months ago

It’s 10 years since Serge. Hochar’s death whilst swimming in Acapulco on NYE 2014 and I think it’s appropriate to celebrate his legacy that is the modern Chateau Musar.
I first tasted Lebanese wines in London circa 1986 when I used to go to a couple of Lebanese restaurants in Shepherds Market near Mayfair in London
Al Hamra is still in business
I’ve been to Beirut several times and always stock up at the airport duty free
So a toast to a departed icon of the wine world
Since my last 2011 4.5 years ago (see note) this has aged wonderfully and I’ve up my rating several points
Another few years and it will be further improved
Optimal decant time was around 3.5 to 4 hours
