Product Notes

Chateau Musar Jeune Rosé is an exquisite Lebanese wine, perfectly embodying the marriage of Cinsault and Syrah grapes. It emanates an inviting aroma of summer fruits entwined with floral notes, providing an enticing prelude to its complex and well-balanced palate. The wine delivers a gorgeous fusion of flavours boasting luscious strawberries, cherries, and spice. The finish is crisp, dry, and satisfying. Unsophisticated yet profound, this rosé wine makes an ideal companion for Mediterranean dishes or delightful on its own. It radiates a youthfulness that aptly complements its name – 'Jeune', resonating vibrance and opinionated character in every sip.

Tasting Notes

Colour - Pale salmon pink. Aroma - Fresh and youthful with delicate floral notes to the nose; honeysuckle, violet and white peaches. Palate - This is an elegant vintage, with lower alcohol as a result of the young vines Cinsault, planted in 2018 from our new vineyards in the hills above Byblos, in Mehrine. A hint of peach and lychee on the palate, this is all at once spring time in a glass. Ideal served lightly chilled as an aperitif or with fish, charcuterie and Middle Eastern mezze.
