Tannic grape cola. Spicy earthy and ripe but a little stitched together... missing something aromatically and on the midpalate. Good value if you like big red wine.

Entry level Musar. 50% Cinsault, 30% Syrah, 20% Cab Sauv. Multiple blind tasters thought it was older. Slightly oxidative. Tobacco, leather, black cherries. Has a dried Valpolicella Ripasso quality to it.

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.

Signature Musar ripeness and oxidative style. A bit simple, but in a way these wines confirm the unique terroir of Bekka Valley every bit as much as those of the Château.

Had high hopes but a bit disappointed. Just jolly rancher.

At first, strong grape juice on the nose and comes across juicy though with decent tannic finish. Let it open (in bottle or glass) and slowly drank it with lamb sausage and haloumi with grilled asparagus dinner and it opened up beautifully. Still a bit of grape in the midpalate but more.comolex and interesting throughout.
Worth the wait.

Wonderfull! A very high value for the price! Very balanced, fruit driven but enough complexity. More of that please!
