Good core of sweet fruits and a bold expression of sappiness. I would say this is entering drinking window but definitely need some decanting before serving.
The 1998 had a distinct liquorish character which is pretty alluring and would be a good tasting wine. Again spices dominate but this was less rustic than the others tasted.
Golden. This has more sweet floral components compared to the 2003 but also a full bodied white. Well integrated on the palate and actually quite enjoyable. An intellectual wine.

Almost full bodied with lots of spice especially pepper. Quite dry on the finish. Still very tannic.

Fairly big wine and a little alcoholic at the moment. Oriental spice dominates the palate especially on the finish.

Very aged taste and character bordering on mustiness. Not my taste but perhaps needed a bit more decanting.

2009 Chateau Musar Musar Jeune Red

Very fruity but very tannic. I don't get much out of this wine at the moment but definitely needs to go with some food.
