Chateau Musar 1998, Bekaa Valley, LebanonABV 13. 5% Grape Varietals Cabernet Sauvignon, Cinsault, Carignan Tasting Notes "The cooler 1998 has an elegant Cinsault dominance; the colour is lighter and more delicately perfumed than a typical vintage. Despite this initial impression, the wine is deceptively powerful with a vibrant acidity and fresh, soft red fruit flavours and a very long, spicy finish. The ideal partner to mushroom and game dishes. A relatively pale, light vintage but this has

and GPL has some of the steepest slopes and best draining soils in Pauillac to cope with the wet early season (although this also meant some blockage of young vines during the drought)
