"Discover the flagship wine from one of Lebanon's most famous wineries, where power, spice, and a long finish come together: a magnificent discovery!"

Let’s head to one of the cradles of the wine world to discover a magnificent new addition 1jour1vin the Château Musar 2018. With its unconventional vintages—resulting from over two years of aging in barrels followed by concrete tanks, before resting for five years in bottles in the estate’s cellars—this wine is a prime example of power. Here, the nose offers great complexity, ranging from jammy red fruits to notes of tomato juice and beautifully alluring leather. On the palate, it’s an explosion of aromas supported by firm, rounded tannins, and its velvety texture lingers into a grand, sweeping finish. A great wine.
