A rich, warm deep cherry red with a smoky nose full of spice and fruits.
On the palate there are mixed berry fruits – cherries, redcurrants, pomegranates and Christmas spices of cinnamon and nutmeg.
Ripe sweet fruit with a smoky edge.
Good acidity with good tannin levels results in a wine of classic structure with long ageing potential.
To best appreciate the subtlety and complexity of Château Musar red we suggest decanting between 30 minutes and 2 hours before serving.
While Château Musar red is certainly ready to be enjoyed upon release 7 years after vintage, or at the age of discretion, the patient are rewarded as they are exceptional after 15 years of age.
