  Medium ruby color with significant bricking
  Medium plus aromas of red cherry/plum with dried herbs/ mint/ tobacco undertones - soy sauce/ cocoa and mild oak spice - quite complex and captivating
  Medium plus bodied with palate of ripe cherry and herbs and unique flavors of sweet and sour sauce
  Medium plus acidity and medium alcohol with medium plus well integrated tannins
  Great length and perfectly balanced
  Unique wine - closer to Rioja than Bordeaux IMO
  Drinking very well now with fantastic ripeness of fruit but could easily hold 5-10 yrs

  Loved it. Great balance, fruit, spices and depth. Full bodied and strong.
  I have another one, which will not make it to the end of this year. With food or on its own, it's delicious. Mysterious Musar delivers again.

  We paired this with lamb. It was a fabulous wine, and a good pairing! Soft, silky, no tannins, sweet - almost perfect.

  Deep garnet.
  Damson, plum, syrup nose.
  Medium bodied, well balanced, tannins well integrated.
  Mixture of black & red fruits on the palate, cherries to the fore, hint of sweetness.
  14%abv.
  This is drinking very well.
  I don’t have great experience of this wine, but impressed and will look out for other vintages in the future.
