Château Musar White 2001 – 75 cl

As usual, the Chateau Musar white 2001 was produced from a blend of two
grapes indigenous to Lebanon: Obaideh and Merwah, ancient varieties dating
back thousands of years. Grown high in the mountains of Lebanon, the vines
were less affected by the intense heat of the summer than the red grapes on the
Bekaa Valley plain. The grapes, harvested at the usual time in mid October, were
very ripe with good fruit concentration and fairly low acidity and tannins.
