Château Musar
Gaston Hochar Grand Cru Red Blend
Bekaa Valley, Lebanon
Brett and VA, at a good level though. Prune, fig, dried red cherry, hawthorn juice, lavender, rosemary, oregano, basil ash, orange peel, raspberry juice, pomegranate. Slightly mousy. Soft and well integrated tannins.

Elegant, fine boned, brimming with stewed red fruits, tobacco, turned earth and sweaty horse ass. Soulful. Brett a little too forward for me on this bottle.

Brilliant. Drinking very well with an hour of air. Lots of life ahead. Really impressive with rack of lamb.

Superb wine. Excellent value. Tips: please decant 6+ hours in the bottle before you drink

A good bottle variation on this one. High acid. Still with fruit and beginning to develop some tertiary qualities in the aftertaste. Ultimately, still a baby in the world of Musar.

So fresh; cherry liquor, haunting secondary notes, earth. Singular.
