Agree with other commentators, pearls were clutched when our host opened this but it was surprisingly accessible young, and unsurprisingly delicious and full of character

Intake 2016 | this Musar surprised me because it is so accessible and refined. Beautiful acidity. Great balance although way too young.

Stone cold classic. Instantly recognisable by the nose alone. Just like Rudolph

Unique, creamy/silky texture, honey, citrus dry but rich.

Wonderful Musar. Perfect accompaniment to Christmas Day lunch. This is a nipper with plenty of aging potential.
