1991 was one of the best vintages ever for Chateau Musar.This wine is known for gaining in complexity with longer bottle age:-
"The once dense colour is continuing to fade here.The core still shows an oxblood hue,but the rim fades to pink-orange reflecting 14 years of ageing.A lovely nose,with dried meats - perhaps goat,Moroccan leather,a little rubber,and some slightly volatile,macerated red fruit.Beautiful texture on the palate,which is full,mouthfilling and creamy.There is a slightly acid sharpness lifting the palate,and a wealth of macerated fruits,leather,and spice.A touch of tannin,and plenty of tingling spice,with a lemony edge on the finish.This isabsolutely splendid - one of the best Musars,along with the 1994,that I have tasted".
(18/20 Points).
