Community Tasting Note

97 Points

Friday, October 23, 2009 - Another gathering on the island (66 Mouton, Lascombes, Musar, and photos...) (Scott Worcester's in Southwest Harbor, ME): I think it was my friend who said if the 91 Musar is Paris Hilton, the 89 is Sophia Loren. What a showcase of elegance and beauty. Pale red in the glass with an exotic nose full of floral tones, red fruits, earth, funk, and just a hint of cement dust. In the mouth this was very light initially and picked up weight with air time. Flavors of red fruits, earth, baking spices, cinnamon, and clove were followed by a lingering note of wild strawberries and raspberries on the finish.
