Vintage Chateau Musar Blanc 2010

£53.00

Chateau Musar whites are truly unique, produced from some of the oldest vineyard sites in the world dating back to 5,000 BC. Indigenous ancient grape varieties Obaideh and Merwah, reputedly the ancestors of Chardonnay and Semillon are still cultivated from un-grafted vines on original rootstock. The vineyards on the seaward facing slopes were planted between 50 and 90 years ago and are at 1,200 metres above sea level – few vineyards of this calibre and history remain in the world today.

Obaideh is high in natural grape sugars and low in acidity, yielding wine with a creamy texture and flavours of honey and lemons. Merwah is a light-skinned grape variety with light citrus and nut flavours, and blended together they make a distinctive white wine with excellent ageing potential.

The Chateau Musar Blanc of 2010 is particularly rare and we have managed to get hold of just a few cases directly from the Chateau, aged in their cellar. Its rarity is just not in how often you see this vintage, it is also in winemaking. This vintage was the year the wine was 100% aged in new French oak.
