Description

1991 was one of the best vintages ever for Chateau Musar.This wine is known for gaining in finesse and complexity with longer bottle age.Older vintages are often compared to a Chateauneuf du Pape or a fine old Burgundy:-

"The once dense colour is continuing to fade here.The core still shows an oxblood hue,but the rim fades to pink-orange reflecting 14 years of ageing.A lovely nose,with dried meats - perhaps goat,Moroccan leather,a little rubber and some slightly volatile,macerated red fruit.Beautiful texture on the palate,which is full,mouthfilling and creamy.There is a slight acid sharpness lifting the palate,and a wealth of macerated fruits,leather and spice.A touch of tannin,and plenty of tingling spice,with a lemony edge on the finish.This is absolutely splendid - one of the best Musars,along with the 1994 that I have tasted".
(18/20 Points).

Chris Kissack. (Winedoctor. July 2004).
