2010 Chateau Musar Blanc, Bekaa Valley (magnum)
2010 Chateau Musar Blanc, Bekaa Valley (magnum)
"It is bright lemon in colour with pears, thyme, pine resin and lemongrass on the nose. The palate has an oily character but with zingy lemon acidity on the finish. There are herbs, pine and citrus flavours a distinctive white vintage with excellent ageing potential. Cellared well, it will keep for decades."
Chateau Musar Tasting Note
"The 2010 Chateau Musar White is nothing if not quirky, produced from ungrafted old vines grown in the Bekaa Valley that were first planted almost 5,000 years ago. A blend of Obaideh and Merwah (and when did you last bump into them?), it's fermented and aged partly in oak and partly in stainless steel. There's lemony, Sémillon-like fruit on the palate, a white Rhône-like peachiness and a touch of oxidative savouriness on the finish. I would be lying if I didn't say that it's an acquired taste, but if you're bored by the ubiquity of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc and crave something different, it's a taste worth acquiring"
Jonathan Ray, The Spectator, March 2019
