Monday, December 1, 2014 - Musar Mini-vertical at Jules' place (Hoboken, NJ.): This is pretty clearly the best wine of the night. More primary on the nose, with great strawberry and cherry, marzipan. This is candied, bright and exotic - it is a depth of flavor on the nose that the previous 3 didn't. The palate is similar - excellent and sweet with dark fruits, some funk, mushroom, spice, horse. This is exciting, exotic and mostly balanced. There is a touch of heat on the finish along with cherry, mineral and spice. Nose - 5/6, Palate - 5.5/6, Finish - 5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1-1.5/2 = 16.5-17/20.
