Chateau Musar Red Wine
Inspired by Lebanon's ancient winemaking tradition, Chateau Musar Red Wines are considered unique expressions of the country's heritage.
Having fermented each grape in separate vats before being aged in French Nevers oak barriques, the resulting wines are then blended and re-aged to showcase the individual characteristics of the year. A seven-year organic process ensuring the richness in quality now expected, Chateau Musar Red Wines are truly worth the wait!
