- A rich, warm colour, now paling towards the rim, with a smoky nose full of spices and fruits. On the palate, there are mixed berry fruits – cherries, redcurrants, pomegranates, and Christmas spices of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Good acidity with good tannin levels results in a wine of classic structure with long ageing potential.Very light in colour with maturity on the rim: salmon ruby. Surprisingly intense and concentrated nose with strong ash and autumnal smells, great acidity, damp leaves, and old bonfires. On the palate, it is a lovely fruit with a long finish that goes through several evolutions (one of which develops old pomegranate flavours) in the longest aftertastes of any Musar. A full mouthfeel defies the lightness of the wine. It's almost chewy in texture. Intense, volatile acidity – Bartholomew Broadbent, October 2019
