2008 Chateau Musar Rouge, Bekaa Valley
"The Cinsault of 2008 seemed to benefit most from the heat and exceptional weather and showed abundant red fruit
aromas, Carignan displayed blackcurrant and black cherry notes and the Cabernet Sauvignon gave us structure with
herbs, coffee and dark berry fruits. The grapes this year were intensely juicy. The wine has a beautiful rich scarlet colour
with an alluring nose of black and red fruits, cherries, coffee, leather and cloves. A natural intensity with well-integrated
tannins and good acidity – this is a rich, warm, concentrated vintage of Chateau Musar showing an abundance of fruit,
energy and considerable finesse. Mature and balanced with a long finish."
Chateau Musar Tasting Note.
"Very sweet and young and well balanced on the palate. No hurry at all to drink this youthful ferment. Very tight, dry wine that is so much younger than any other vintage tasted. SO much more youthful than a bordeaux 2008!"
17.5pts, Jancis Robinson
