Chateau Musar

Chateau Musar is a Lebanese winery located in Ghazir, Lebanon, 24 kilometres (15 mi) north of the capital Beirut.

[7] Despite war in Lebanon and frequent tension, with the exception of the 1976 vintage, wine has been produced at the Château every year, with employees sometimes working under high-risk conditions.

[1][5] Due to the winemaking philosophy of Serge Hochar, its vintages are notoriously inconsistent.

[7][12] The red wine, which is the best known is made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cinsault, Carignan, Grenache, and Mourvèdre grapes in varying amounts each year.

[13] They also produce a single vineyard wine, Hochar, which is similar to the red Musar but is oak aged for only 9 months, and can be drunk younger, as well as the Cuvée Musar range, both produced as a red, white and a rosé.
