Vintage wine 1995 at Arden Fine Wines – Chateau Musar 1995
The quality of the 1995 harvest was exceptional but there was one problem: the size of the crop was down by more than 30%.
Fermentation progressed smoothly and, in some cases, lasted until the following March and April 1996!
The winemaker blended one third each of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cinsault, and Carignan in the third year following the harvest.
The winery bottled the wine in July and August 1998.

How best to enjoy Chateau Musar
Chateau Musar reds, bottled unfined and unfiltered, suit vegans.
Moreover, they also possess a richly-textured quality and are likely “throw a crust” and leave sediment in the bottle.
In fact, most fine wines commonly exhibit this feature, and Musar Red vintages over a decade old especially show it.
Ideally, therefore, you should stand the bottles up the night before opening to allow the sediment to settle.
After that, you should carefully decant and then discard the sediment, usually in the last centimetre of the bottle.
Subsequently, you should allow the wine to breathe for an hour.
Finally, serve it best at 18°C with roasts, grills (especially lamb), casseroles, game, and mature cheeses.
