Community Tasting Note

Monday, August 30, 2021 - Musar Vertical: What a heavenly nose full of sweet fresh strawberry fruit, fresh herbs, some volatile acidity, but just extremely well balanced and graceful. Absolutely mesmerizing, something to dream about. The palate is a true stunner as well, it‘s elegant, aristocratic even, very polished not only for Musar standards, with a perfect balance between heavenly sweet, melting fruit, freshness and spice. Also infinitely long. Close to perfection for my palate, also the favorite of the groupe. 20/20

But yes, I would advise to give older Musars (20years+) a lot of air. I normally decant them about 12 hours with great results.
