Description
Musar Jeune range of wines are produced from low-yielding Bekaa Valley vines which are grown at around 1000 metres above sea level. The altitude keeps the average temperature moderate at 25 ° C and with hot sunny days and cool nights, the grapes are ripened to perfection; they are harvested from our organically certified vineyards and vinified in stainless steel to preserve the varietal characteristics.
A blend of 80% Cinsault from 30-year-old vines and more recent introduction of 20% Mourvèdre from 8-year-old vines.
The Cinsault and Mourvèdre underwent ‘direct pressing’ and were fermented in stainless steel vats at temperatures between 18°C and 21°C. Once malolactic fermentation was complete, the wines were left to rest for 3 months, then cold stabilised and bottled in March 2021.
