Chateau Musar 1994

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (90)

The 1994 Chateau Musar is a sweet and relatively sexy Musar on opening, with some brett nuances (surprise!), but nice fruit and a chocolate-y note in the background. Early on, I didn’t think this would show much power, but 2 ½ hours of air changed my mind on that. There is more muscle here than seems apparent at first. It eventually seemed tightly wound. It should age well and it shows fine balance. As it aired, the bretty notes became more prominent, an understandable distraction for those who object to them.
