Chateau Musar (1978) Half-Bottle

New

When released the wine was a bright, deep garnet-red, with notes of roasted, spice and cardamom. A great depth and richness were apparent, conveying flavours of cassis, caramel, spices, and nutty oak. A sweet fruit, full-bodied vintage; velvety in the mouth with a long, warm finish. In its maturity, the wine still retains its acidity and spice element, with an emphasis toward liquorice and dark fruits and underlying sweet/savoury note that is the hallmark of a now elegant and mature vintage.

    Musar. A wine that has survived war, commercial wilderness and even comments that it has a ‘weird, briney note to some vintages’. Why? Because it is one of the most interesting, unique and complex wines in the world. Its grapes are grown in the Bekaa valley, the ‘bread basket’ of ancient Rome, and transported over the high coastal range to Serge Hochar, son of the founder Gaston.
