Hochar 2018/19 Chateau Musar, Bekaa Valley

Hochar Père et Fils Red has often been described as the ‘second’ wine of Chateau Musar, as its style does bear some resemblance to the flagship wine but the comparison stops there as its vineyards, blend and ageing places are very different.

Tasting notes

The Hochar of 2017 is a ruby red colour, bright and vibrant. Complex nose of red cherries, sweet smoke and cinnamon spice aromas. Cheery notes, subtle earthy characters on the rich, concentrated palate - it is all at once fruity, fresh and elegant. Certainly a food wine with a quite a long finish.
