Lebanon: Chateau Musar Red (5) |
|
Thursday, 17 March 2005 |
Lebanese. Lebanese I hear you ask. Don't let that put you off. It should entice you in to try it. You'll be rewarded with an excellent wine with its own complexities. This is not a big Ozzie, hit you in the face and run away type of red wine. Far more elegant and made for savouring.

Feb 07: Just had a bottle of the 1999 watching House of Flying Daggers and a very enjoyable Friday night in it was. Followed by a touch of Penfolds Bin 8.
The Chateau Musar was not as deep and full bodied as I remember it. It felt like somewhere between medium and full. You could still see through it but very full on the palette.
