- It is a deep, rich garnet in color with aromas of raisins, cedar, prunes, and cinnamon. 2010 is a savory, herby wine with delicate spices and the raisiny, figgy aromas follow through to the palate. This is an elegant vintage with fresh acidity and a long, dry finish. Bright ruby. Heady, rich, and gamey on the nose. Very hedonistic and accessible with real density and lifted slight gaminess. An attractive singed character on top of very ripe fruit. Great balance and freshness (but not excessive acidity) on the finish. Very neat in the end. Something rather wild and Romany about this. Already accessible even if I’m sure it will develop even more complex tertiary
I can’t recall a vintage of Chateau Musar I’ve enjoyed more. The 2010 is tiny in quantity, but marked by a purity of rich, figgy, elegant red fruit and a seductive finish on the palate – Will Lyons, The Sunday Times Magazine, 5th April 2020

| Winery | Seven years in the making, Chateau Musar Red is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carignan and Cinsault from vineyards near the Bekaa Valley villages of Aana and Kefraya on gravelly soils over limestone. Planted from the 1930s onwards, yields are low from these mature bushvines (average age: 40 years): Between 15 to 35hl per hectare. |
