August 30, 2021 - From a half bottle. The wine seemed ready within 2-3 hours which pleased me because I wanted a wine to accompany a Persian Chicken portion I found in the freezer (left over from a memorable dinner party with a couple of Musar vintages to accompany the main course). Superb, even soon after opening (has it matured more quickly in a half bottle or is it now truly ready?). A good deep colour with a little browning at the rim. A superb nose with all the rich, ‘sweet’ dark fruit and spice that I expect. The palate was good from the off and it retained all the Musar characteristics with good acidity and soft tannin (with great, juicy, length). It doesn’t need a detailed note. It was perfect with food and will drink well from now for quite a few years so I am glad I still have half a dozen bottles for us to savour over time.
