Thursday, January 20, 2011 - Mini-Vertical: Chateau Musar (Arlequin Wines, San Francisco): Garnet color, pretty advanced for 10 year old wine. This reeks of VA and has a very Italianate profile in this respect. Faded red fruit, lighter to the point of feeling skinny, and a funny chemical component that has me wondering if this is flawed or just an extreme expression of this wine. Whatever the case, a disappointing way to start the series of reds.
