Musar Jeune Red is one of the beautiful wines Chateau Musar has to offer. Chateau Musar is a winery from a less-known wine country: Lebanon. Despite coming from a country where few have heard of wine, they produce beautiful, classic wines. The vineyards for this Young Musar wine are located at an altitude of approximately 1,000 meters. These vineyards were planted in 2000 and are situated in the Bekaa Valley, a perfect area for growing grapes. The grapes thrive here thanks to the interplay of daytime warmth and evening coolness.
The splendor of Lebanon can be found in this Musar Jeune
This Musar Jeune Red is a blend of Cinsault, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah. The same grapes are used for Château Musar's top-quality wine, only the composition is different. Musar Jeune uses more Cinsault grapes. This grape has a wonderfully fruity character that many of us know from the Rhône region. To ensure that Château Musar also had a red wine suitable for everyday use, they created this Musar Jeune series, and not entirely without success, as these wines possess depth and a pleasant suppleness.
The aroma and taste of the Musar Jeune Red
The ruby red color reminds us of a fine Rhône wine. The aroma offers pleasant yet subtle aromas of ripe red and black fruit, interspersed with hints of violets and a touch of licorice. The palate is full and intense, with soft flavors of cherries, berries, and blackberries, accompanied by a hint of anise and a light spiciness. The finish is full, rounded, and smooth, with fine tannins that complete the wine. According to Chateau Musar, it's an everyday wine. For us, it's truly a special wine, and it's a real treat to open it!
