Chteau Musar Gaston Hochar

Details

The 2015 vintage is a traditional blend of approximately one third each of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cinsault and Carignan.

Just released, the Chateau Musar Red of this year is a dark blood red colour with a rich, fragrant fruit nose; mulberries, black cherries, plums with a hint of mocha. The palate is very intense and concentrated, its full of volume and characterised by forest and black fruits with elegant spice.

The tannins are soft and juicy and it has a lengthy finish. Chateau Musar Red 2014 is a vibrantly powerful vintage and cellared well it will keep for decades. A great match for red meats, especially game, seasonal casseroles and mature cheeses.
