1999. One of serge last wines. Things showing as well as any wine I’ve had. Super expressive on nose. Super long finish. Great balance. Rich plummy flavors. Fantastic. — 5 days ago

AFAIK, Serge was involved in the winemaking (alongside Tarek) all the way until he passed in 2014.

Haven't tried a wine from Lebanon in a while. Wonderful aroma of dark red and black fruits. Tobacco. Cedar. Sour plum. Pretty cool 😎.
This 2020 is aging pretty well. Could go longer but drinking well now, a bit unctuous. Thick. Not a super structured or complex palette but it holds it's own with any Mediterranean lamb dish that you would pair it with. Very similar to Napa cabs but with a bit less finesse but with more interesting aromatics. — 4 months ago

Vintage 1998 | a world of difference drinking Musar on itself (difficult) and with food (absolute tremendous). Tertiary smell, supple and refined taste. Paired with game croquettes. — 2 months ago

It’s been many years since I’ve had any Musar wines, I have very fond memories drinking them in the 1980s when we lived in NYC and they were pretty easy to find at retail!!

@Anthony De Blasi, BTW, do you know what the cepage is in this wine?

Anthony De Blasi

@Doug Powers indeed, it’s a great winery with iconic wines. The cepage is Cab Sauv, Cinsault and Carignan. I still have the 2011 in magnum for my daughter her birthyear 🤩

In Margarita Island, Venezuela, while celebrating the “Extraction”. Nice surprise. Never tasted a Lebanese wine. Fruity aromas and acidity in harmony. Good for Arabian meats. I would repeat — 18 days ago

Golden, beautifully matured with all the love you could squeeze out of fresh sour apricots, syrupy canned peaches, perfumed black cherries, and all the things that oxygen brings.

Apricots first, then a lifted VA note that folds into a nutty sticky caramel apple thing.

It's more perfumed and full of acid and life then you'd ever imagine despite a tired ale color. Amazing stuff. — a month ago

Beautiful. Also, that label looks rugged!

I know that’s why I opened it! I was getting worried!
