Decanted for around an hour, the recently released 2013 Grand Vin from Chateau Musar is an enormous wine at present in its youth. Gradually, it opened into a gorgeous, exotic and utterly unique product of this unlikely corner of the wine world. There’s plenty of Bordeaux-like character in the form of dark fruit and cigar box, but there are notes too of cranberry, liquorice, clove, mandarin and five spice. The mouthfeel, as a whole, has a quasi Brunello quality to it, with its bright cherry fruit and mouthwatering acidity. But woe is anyone to compare this wine to any other, for it is incomparable. One of Serge Hochar’s last vintages before his passing in 2014, and one that will doubtless have a long life. — 5 years ago

So so tight. Started to show its potential only after lots of time in the decanter. The glass is rattling—so much energy. Incredibly powerful but somehow light on its feet. A great wine in need of cellar time — 7 years ago

Pale lemon color, with aromas of citrus, stone fruits and herbs. On the palate flavors of pineapple, peach and citrus with floral notes and slight spice. Medium+ finish, vivid acidity ending with lemon citrus, herb and stony mineral spice. — 6 months ago

Opened and poured into a ship decanter for two hours before being returned to the bottle another couple of hours prior to dinner at Le Bouillon. A golden color that seem lighter on the rim. On the nose, this is eminently rustic with stone fruits, wild flower honey, echinacea and butterscotch. On the palate, not nearly as oxidative as the nose would suggest. In fact, this is remarkably fresh with bright apricot and nondescript tropical fruits. Medium-plus acid. The finish is long and somewhat saline. A wine of brilliant texture. A stunning pairing with marinated octopus and was delightful with the other courses of our meal as well. A small portion was left for further evaluation the following day. I am happy to report that it held up very well indeed. The late Serge Hochar once said that his white wines seem to gain freshness with age. The 2005 vintage shows there is likely truth to his assessment. Well cellared examples should drink well for at least another decade. I, for one, look forward to checking in on these for many years to come. — 5 years ago

Dagueneau has a beautiful range of wines—with the “Silex” label at the top. This “Blanc, etc.” is considered a more accessible, youthful bottling made from biodynamically farmed, younger vines, vinified & aged in stainless steel for a fresh & focused profile.

In the glass, this wine is pale lemon, with crystalline notes of gooseberry, honeydew, quince, starfruit, kumquat, lemon zest, chamomile, fennel, next to oystershell, gunflint & wet stones, lifted by a racy acidity and balanced by a medium alcohol and body.

It offers purity, texture & tension as well as versatility in terms of food-pairing prospects. — 5 months ago
