February 20, 2013 - 5 Decades of Ch. Musar Blanc.... with Serge & Marc Hochar (Dining Room, Aberdeen Marina Club, Hong Kong): Tasted blind amongst 12 vintages. Bright and alive caramel gold colour. Reticent nose giving little more than shoe polish. Palate is slightly maderized and tartly acidic. A bit faded. Lots of elements like an aged dry fino sherry. Some sweetness emerged with more time in the glass…. dried tangerine peel, as CK pinpointed. Clearly an older wine…. er, though not really by Musar standards. Serge thought that this was the 1975. He also mentioned that this was a year of very low production and that he only released the first bottles 10 years ago.
