WTN: Chateau Musar 1999

Lockdown Wine #89. My go-to wine for couscous which we had for dinner. Opaque and browning at the edge. The barnyard is strong in this one - immediately evident when the cork was popped. Rich and sweet. Quite a bit of blood/iron all throughout. Prune and leather. Dried berries. Pretty soft, good length. In a very good place, and about perfect now. Had half the bottle tonight, the other half reserved for kebabs on the weekend.

You've had the '99 Musar before as part of the lockdown series, right?

Yes, correct. I'm starting to run out of unique bottles so I'll probably be doing more repeats.
