Vintage Chateau Musar Blanc 2018

£35.95

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.

The 2018 vintage displays a brilliant gold in the glass. Pronounced aromas of quince, lemon zest, baked apple with a hint of vanilla on the nose. The palate has citrus and subtle herbaceous notes, grapefruit and preserved lemons with an overall impression of ripeness, a lovely freshness and long dry finish.

Drinking well now but if cellared well, it will keep for decades.
