Wine name: Musar Jeune. Producer: Château Musar. Vintage: 2009. Purchased from Sheffield Park Vineyard. Appearance very deep purple, thick and viscous on the glass with black cherries, cherries, plums, black grapes. Very fruity aromatics. The attack is very juicy, like fresh blackcurrant juice. Evolution: Like un-smokey smoke! Blackberries, blackcurrants with a finish which is blackcurrant juice in nose and on swallow. Sweetness: 0. Acidity: 4. Tannin: 1.5 with a texture which is like blackcurrant juice. The tannins are very smooth and the length is not bad. As for balance, it's very nice balanced and particularly juicy. The wine has a cork closure and is 13.5% abv. Overall, this wine is very nice and an unusual style of wine. Heavy grape varieties produced in such a light style make for interesting drinking!. My score is 84 points.
