In their youth, Chateau Musar Reds are dense and richly-textured, with intense ?baked fruit? characters: plums, damsons, cranberries, cherries, figs and dates. Bordeaux grape Cabernet Sauvignon lends black fruit flavours; Rh?ne grapes Cinsault and Carignan contribute fragrance (violets; pepper) and supple spiciness.
