The Chateau Musar 1997 has a deep cherry red colour and a smoky nose full of spice and mature cherry fruit.  On the palate, flavours of cherries, redcurrants, pomegranates mix with those of cinnamon and nutmeg. Good acidity with good tannin levels results in a wine of classic structure and long ageing potential.

We would recommend serving with game, hard cheeses and red meats.

The Chateau Musar Red 1997 is made from a blend of different grape varieties, mainly: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cinsault and Carignan. The vines are grown on a gravely soil with a limestone base. The composition varies from one year to the next, giving Château Musar a different character and identity each year.
