Saturday, December 8, 2018 - Musar is just one of those wines where one needs to be picky to find areas to criticise when it consistently delivers quality at a not so fine price. This bottle was no different.
Nose was so inviting... Florals, sweet spice, orange peel and a whole potpurri of scents.
On the palate, it was nice crunchy fruit but balanced with sweet spice and some oak, leather and tobacco. Wow, this is really hitting its stride.
On a casual night, where one seeks quality but can’t bear to open a really fine bottle, Musar fulfills that niche perfectly.
Thankful that i have more and will see how it develops in the next 5-10 years.
