Sipping Fine Wine 
Ok, not very complex. Simple, drink now, a bit pricey.

Lot’s of tertiary and oxidative notes. Prune, raisin, dark cherry, ripe banana, vanilla, and tomato. Medium alcohol, medium plus acid, medium tannin, medium finish, medium body. Either this is a wine intended to be drunk young, or this particular bottle was cooked. Guessing the former, so stick to young bottles.

Traditional Bordeaux style, old school presentation: red currants, cigar box, herbs, red fruit, some cassis, Left Bank nose & palate. Full bodied, elegant, lovely integrated tannins. Supple delicious and a solid offering from a venerable producer from Lebanon

My first #chateaumusar - taciturn black fruit, cassis, sous bois on the nose. Palate with conspicuous acidity up front, sturdy tannins mid-palate on the finish. Delicious wine now but easily could cruise 10 to 15 years longer. Fascinating 50% #cinsault 40% #grenache 10% #cabernetsauvignon

Fun combo of smoky notes with rhubarb, strawberry lighter touch. Tart acidity on the finish.

Hubby loved this wine, its a decent wine just not what I prefer. Too acidic for me. Ruby red, transparent, no sign of sediment. Smells like plastic, hubby disagrees says just hints of higher alcohols with herbal notes like thyme. Tastes like current and cranberry. Very acidic. Medium bodied. Lingering bitterness. Had with Schwarma, didn’t care for it on its own and food didn’t make it much better. Bummer at $27/bottle but oh well, hubby says he’ll buy it again.
