"Discover the grand cuvée from one of Lebanon's most renowned estates, where power, spice, and length intertwine: a magnificent discovery!"

Head to one of the cradles of the wine world to discover a magnificent new addition 1jour1vin Château Musar 2018. Presenting their offbeat vintages, which are aged for over two years in barrels and then in concrete vats before sleeping for five years in bottles in the estate's cellars, this is an example of power. Here, the nose offers great complexity, ranging from jammy red fruits to notes of tomato juice and beautifully seductive leather. On the palate, it is an explosion of aromas supported by firm, round tannins, with a velvety texture that lingers into a long finish. A great wine.
