Chateau Musar, White 2018

Product Information Country Lebanon Region Bekka Valley Grape Variety Obaideh & Merwah Vintage 2018 ABV 12% Discover the exquisite Chateau Musar White 2018, a premium Lebanese white wine crafted from the ancient Obaideh and Merwah grape varieties. This exceptional vintage reflects the unique terroir of the Anti-Lebanon Mountains, where vineyards at 1,300 meters elevation produce grapes aged 50 to 90 years, resulting in a rare and complex wine experience. Exceptional Vintage Conditions The 2018 harvest began with abundant winter rainfall and snowfall, providing natural vineyard irrigation. Moderate spring rains supported healthy vine growth, while a warm summer, including a brief August heatwave, concentrated the grapes’ flavours. This careful balance of climate conditions ensures a refined, structured, and aromatic wine. Traditional Lebanese Winemaking Chateau Musar White 2018 is crafted using a traditional Lebanese vinification process, with Obaideh and Merwah grapes gently pressed and fermented in new French oak barrels for nine months. The wine is then expertly blended, cold-stabilised, and bottled to preserve its distinctive character, making it a prized selection for wine collectors and enthusiasts. Tasting Notes – Fresh, Zesty, and Complex Chateau Musar White 2018 showcases a bright lemon-gold colour with vibrant aromas of lemon, lime, oregano, and pine. On the palate, enjoy crisp flavours of ripe pears, fresh apples, and Mediterranean herbs. This white wine is both youthful and layered, ideal for tasting at cellar temperature (around 15°C) to fully appreciate its depth and complexity. Perfect for pairing with seafood, grilled vegetables, or a gourmet cheese platter. Discover our range of Chateau Musar wines.
