Chateau Musar RED Bekaa Valley Lebanon
Description: Chateau Musar makes every effort at producing totally natural wines, letting each one develop its own character while the red wines in particular are known for their complexity and maturity. From the vineyard to the cellar great care is taken as this wine is aged 12 to 15 months in Nevers oak, and blended in its third year, before being bottled and aged in the cellar for four years. This has produced a deep red almost brick coloured wine with a nose showing plenty of compelx spicy character. This character develops on the palate as this concentrated tannic wine culminates in a powerful finish. Created in 1930 in the cellar of an old XVIIIth century castle, Chateau Musar is as much the work of a family as the living testimony of all the civilizations that tread its soil. After a long stay in France, Gaston Hochar returned to Lebanon and created Chateau Musar in the cellars of the old 'Mzar' castle in Ghazir, overlooking the Mediterranean sea. What began as a hobby soon became a passion; a passion inspired by an initial encounter with renowned viticulturist Ronald Barton while stationed in Lebanon during the Second World War. The family's love for wine grew and in 1959, after completing his oenology diploma in Bordeaux, the eldest son, Serge, entered the business. Some call him the magician, the man behind this extraordinary wine. His response? That all he seeks is to translate what nature intended. The vineyards of Chateau Musar are located at an altitude of over 3,000 feet in the Bekaa Valley where the vines are sheltered by the surrounding mountains running parallel to the Mediterranean coast. They cover 180 hectares and produce a limited yield of about 35 hl/ha. The red wines are made from a blend of different grape varieties, mainly: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cinsault and Carignan. The vines are grown on a gravely soil with a limestone base. The composition varies from one year to the next, giving Chateau Musar a different character and identity each year.. The white wines are made from a blend of Obeideh and Merwah, which are native to the Bekaa Valley and Mount Lebanon. According to the legend, Obeideh and Merwah were taken back to Europe with the Crusaders and are the likely ancestors of Chardonnay and Semillon respectively. (1 x 75 cl)
