Chateau Musar White 2016

White Wine from Lebanon

Winemaker Notes

In their youth: yellow-gold, subtly oaky, and creamy-textured, rich yet dry and intensely citrusy, with honeyed nuances. Wholly unique, the style has been described as resembling ‘dry Sauternes’ or mature white Graves. Chateau Musar Whites develop tawny hues and mellow spicy characters as they age. The cellars at Ghazir holds bottles of this wine dating as far back as 1954.

Chateau Musar White is fermented in French oak barriques (from the forest of Nevers) for 9 months, bottled and blended at the end of its first year and released seven years after the harvest.

Food Pairing 

Pairs well with pâtés (especially foie gras), rillettes, seafood dishes and will match spicy food as the wine has such intense flavours.
