Chateau Musar Description
Chateau Musar Red 2004 is a rare vintage that captures the essence of Lebanon's unique terroir. This exceptional wine is the result of a fascinating dual-harvest experience, offering a complex blend of rich fruit flavors and elegant spice notes.
The Chateau Musar Red 2004 boasts a deep burgundy hue and a captivating nose filled with mature fruits such as plums, cherries, and figs, complemented by hints of cinnamon and cloves. On the palate, indulge in a symphony of rich black and red fruits, with plums and damsons taking center stage, accompanied by pomegranate, baked cherries, and festive spices. This powerful vintage presents fine, smooth tannins and a spicy, warming finish.
Expertly crafted from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cinsault, and Carignan grape varietals, the Chateau Musar Red 2004 spent nine months in cement vats and a year in French Nevers oak barrels, before resting for another nine months in vats. This meticulous aging process ensures a perfectly balanced and harmonious wine that only gets better with time.
Pair this versatile red with a variety of dishes, such as roasted lamb, hearty stews, or grilled vegetables. Its warming spices and rich fruit flavors make it an ideal companion for Mediterranean cuisine, while its velvety smoothness adds a touch of luxury to any meal.
Wine Advocate: 91 Points
Equal blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carignan & Cinsault. Although it's quite elegant and graceful in its own right. Most importantly, it has more of an obvious backbone even though it's late-released. Its balance, combining the nice fruit, elegant mid-palate, persistent finish & backbone, gives it a tightly wound, precise and focused demeanor.
