Chateau Musar
Château Musar 2018, Bekaa Valley, Lebanon - 1.5l
Lebanon may not be the first territory that trips off the tongue when discussing leading lights in wine manufacture. Chateau Musar Red will make a mockery of any first impressions. Coloured a deep and pleasing burgundy, this 2018 vintage offers an aroma of fruit, spice, and liquorice. This is paired with a bold and deeply fruity taste and finish, with a hint of leather and mocha that is sure to linger.
GRAPE
-
Cabernet Sauvignon, Carignan, Cinsault
WHAT IT GOES WITH
This wine is best enjoyed with grilled or roasted red meat, though it will also pleasingly accompany strong and mature cheese. For the best possible pairing, decant your Chateau Musar ahead of serving and allow it to breathe for around an hour.
ABOUT THE VINEYARD
Gaston Hochar was the mastermind behind Chateau Musar, taking ownership of the vineyard at the tender age off 20 in 1930. Having spent time in Bordeaux, Gaston intended to blend the art of French winemaking with traditional Lebanese techniques. Serving in France during WWII, Gaston's wines captured the imagination of a worldwide audience. This continued under the stewardship his son Serge, who took control of the business in 1959. Serge sadly passed away in 2014, but Chateau Musar remains a family affair - Gaston is still adulated with the running of the winery, while Serge's brother, son, nephew and great-niece are all involved in this celebrated vineyard.

A wooden box can make your magnum look even more special, especially if you want to personalise it for a gift. We can engrave up to 50 characters, in one of five different fonts, to the front of the wooden box.
We always intend to despatch any orders on the same day, on a next day delivery service, assuming checkout is completed before 1pm as this gives us enough time to prepare the package.
You can also track your order throughout the process, ensuring that you’re home to accept it or make alternative arrangements with DPD.
If ordering as a gift, please provide the recipient’s address and a contact telephone number so they are notified a delivery is coming. While the arrival of a magnum will surely be a welcome surprise, we want to ensure somebody is available to sign for the package. We’ll keep you updated about the delivery progress, and supply a purchase invoice that doubles as a receipt for your financial records to your email address. We never include an invoice with the package in case it is a gift.
We rarely need to process returns, but in the improbable event that we need to do so, we will offer a full refund on any product returned in its original packaging and in a re-sellable condition. Unfortunately we cannot refund shipping costs.
