Big on the nose with dusty ash and lots of fruit. The fruit is sweet and beautifully balanced. A gorgeous and exquisite mature red wine. 94/100.
Drunk at the 2016 Doty Cup.

Re: 1983 Chateau Musar
Alex,
I have a 1984 Musar, the mythical "never produced" vintage. I've not had one yet but I hear it is quite good. I will try and keep my sticky fingers off of it until we meet and can share it.
