Community Tasting Note

  June 12, 2013 - My second time on tasting Chateau Musar 2001. Similar to the previous tasting experience which in one and a half years ago.
  
  Extremely high acidity and strong earthy taste for the first hour. The wine seemed to become more 'ready' for the next couple hours. Garnet in color. Very complex on nose with baked fruits, raspberry, cigar box, flowers and cassis. Good concentration along with balanced acidity and velvet tannin. It provided intense flavors of raspberry, cherry, gamey, olives and medium-short finish with lead pencil on palate. Brilliant wine at this price. But before opening this wine, please make sure you have at least two hours to open it up.
