Taste, texture & character

What’s in the glass?

Toasted bread, cigar box, tea, plum and Eastern spice lead into fig, cherry, dark chocolate and a subtle gamey note. It is a powerful vintage, but the palate retains Musar’s characteristic lightness and cleansing acidity.

Chateau Musar

The people behind the pour

Chateau Musar

Founded in 1930 within the cellars of a 17th-century castle, this legendary Lebanese estate is a living testament to the ancient civilisations that have shaped its soils. Steered with historic devotion by the Hochar family, they craft wildly unique, age-defying masterpieces that bring an effortless, time-travelling sophistication straight to your glass.

From vineyard to glass

Lebanon

Lebanon's ancient winemaking heritage is rooted in high-altitude valleys kissed by reliable Mediterranean sunshine and cooled by crisp mountain nights.
