Founded in 1930 by Gaston Hochar, Chateau Musar is THE flagship winery of Lebanon. Their vineyards are planted at 1,000mts altitude on bush vines between 30 and 60 years old. Certified organic since 2006, all work is done by hand in the vineyards and no irrigation is used during the growing season to optimise the expression of each different terroir. Chateau Musar Red is a blend of one third Cabernet Sauvignon grown on gravel soils, one third Cinsault grown on limestone soils and one third Carignan from silty soils.
2015 was a warm and dry vintage in Lebanon, producing concentrated and fruit-packed red wines. The vines produced very low yields as a result, and the old vine Cinsault grapes were the stars of the blend, giving freshness and elegance despite the vintage conditions. The wine has a deep red colour, with aromas of sweet cherry, plum and dried fruits together with subtle spices and a hint of tobacco. It has a soft, rounded mouthfeel with bags of flavour and fruit concentration –mocha and ripe red fruits – which are supported by smooth, velvety tannins and a spicy finish. Open, attractive and immediately appealing!
