Château Musar
Hochar Père & Fils Bekaa Valley Red Blend
2009 vintage but still retains a lot of the dark fruit. Spicy and balanced with acidity that keeps its freshness. Nice!

Feb 16th, 2019Cab, Carignan , Cinsault, Grenache. Fermented in cement, 9 months in oak. 5 years bottle age before release. Expressive nose, baking spice, juicy blackberry. A delicious wine that leaves you wanting more.
