#blend of 28% #Syrah, 26% #Grenache, 24% #Carignan, 15% #Cinsault and 7% #Mourvèdre, all aged a year in older demi-muids and 500-liter casks. 13.5% alcohol, medium-bodied, even hollow on mid-palate. It's red-fruited and has overtones of savory spice (think salami, cracked pepper and star anise) and a bright, juicy medium finish #languedocrousillon #languedoc #suddefrance #france #larsac #terrassesdularsac — 6 years ago

Vintage 2014 / #cinsault attractive wine that reminds me of Cru de Beaujolais because it is elegant and energizing but with a lightness that is lovely. Cherries. Pomegranate. Licorice. — 8 years ago

Vintage 2014 - #cinsault #syrah #cabernetsauvignon Brushwood in smell, Raspberries in smell and in taste. Great balance. I have had Musar Jeune and thought it not very special, but after tasting a lot of #lebanonwine this wine next to them really shows the craftmanship of Musar. — 8 years ago

70% #garnacha 15 #cinsault 10 #syrah And 5 #monastrell #gsm #france #rhone hardly present in the nose. While also quite subtle on the palate. It does seem elegant and soft. It seems to have a woman's touch. Caroline Frey doesn't disappoint here. Basically it's an affordable #chateauneufdupape — 11 years ago

2016 vintage. Red plum, hoisin, shiitake on soft wood, cinnamon and cedar, coffee rye, palm bark, lilac. Expansive sour cherry, cranberry, pipe tobacco, leather, apple skin, allspice, nutmeg and clove. Really a perfect Côtes du Rhône from a great vintage, shining, deific at eight years.

Once it’s opened up, this dark #malbec #pinotage #cinsault blend presents a deep well of blackberry and cassis fruit aromas plus a slight nail polish scent which I find pleasant as it’s subtle. Less fruit than you expect on the palate, some cocoa and bitter coffee flavors towards the end trailed by soft light tannins; juicy acidity throughout. Yum! #wsjwineclub — 6 years ago

Vintage 2014 This #Lirac is made of #grenache #syrah #cinsault. it has a nice perfume from elegant raspberries and morello cherries. Very seductive. And a smooth taste. Great ‘little’. #Rhone wine! — 8 years ago

Vintage 1994 - made of the 3 c's: #cabernetsaugvinon, #cinsault and #carignan. I have a weak spot for Musar. Its colour is lightish brown, tuilé. Easy to be mistaken for old nebbiolo. It's nowadays quite unique to see such colour. The wine smells warm and inviting, and yes, complex. I smell pipetobacco, the sweet, vannila, leather and a forrest with wild mushrooms. A spices warehouse. Rich! On the tongue a attack of satin, só smooth, nice sweetness and compelling attractive bitters at the end. A marvelous wine, now 23 years old. Elegance ánd finesse. #musar #lebanon #happiness — 9 years ago

My first #chateaumusar - taciturn black fruit, cassis, sous bois on the nose. Palate with conspicuous acidity up front, sturdy tannins mid-palate on the finish. Delicious wine now but easily could cruise 10 to 15 years longer. Fascinating 50% #cinsault 40% #grenache 10% #cabernetsauvignon — 3 years ago

My second bottle of this #malbec #pinotage #cinsault blend - still like it a lot for the price. Blackberry jam, cassis, slight leather, cocoa aroma; less of the nail polish aroma once it airs out. Bitter cocoa, coffee notes along with the fruit and lush acidity and neat tannins fading into a long finish. #wsjwineclub — 6 years ago

Vintage 2006 - always special to taste Musar. Made from the three C’s #cinsault #carignan #cabernetsauvignon Mature smell with richness, a lot of complexity, the wine is in smell and taste warm as well as multi- layered. Plums also. Nice to taste Musar again. #lebanonwine — 8 years ago

This man has a beautiful touch: selecting surprising and non-native grapes in Californian climates that tend not to be generous to said varietals, and making them a delight to drink every single time! This 2015 blend of 57% #Mourvèdre, 34% #Grenache and 9% #Cinsault under the #LePtitPaysan label is a balanced, exciting and fun #CentralCoast #Rosé to accompany just about everything. — 10 years ago

#redwine You're hit on the nose with aromas of baking spice, clove, plum, licorice & red berries. Solid & inviting medium plus tannins, body, medium plus viscosity, complexity & great finish. Lovely & a vintage to revisit!
