Plum, juicy and ripe red and dark cherries, some earth, a touch of sweet spices. Sweet and smooth tannins, good acidity, moderate alcohol. 50% Cinsault, 35% Grenache, 15% Cabernet Sauv.

This is a bottle of excellence. Bright, yet subtle. Spicy, but not hot. Plums and tannins. Rich, textured, it’s alive.

Marvelous. Starts immediately on the nose—full of rich dark fruits and a little thyme. Carries into the palate with the addition of medium-minus oak. Flavors linger a long time with minimal fall off.

Beautiful - everything a young Chateau Musar has - bright sweet cherry fruit with a candied note, a bit of VA that adds depth, a light touch of funk that’s barely perceptible - maybe a level below in terms of extraction and depth, but not far behind. Impressed. This would be a case buy if I drank enough to buy a case of anything

Несбалансированно, жарко. Похоже на аргентинские или чилийские бомбы.
