Saturday, March 6, 2021 - As a big a Musar fan it pains me to say this was a bit of a disappointment. Bottle variance is pretty common from what I’ve heard so hoping this is one of those instances.
It had most of the expected profiles: a touch of VA, cherry fruit & orange rind but it was all a bit thin and limp. Lacked depth and richness I’d like, it was lighter, maybe a little burg-esque.
I double decanter at 8:30am and didn’t visit this until 5pm and sampled over the night, leaving some for the following day. No dramatic signs of improvement over that time.
Better experiences had from my 02 & 03 halves.
