A bright, vibrant ruby color; the 2022 vintage is bursting with rich fruits. A traditional Musar Jeune nose with dark cherries and berries, it is all at once juicy and fresh with pomegranate, cranberries and herbal scents of violet and thyme. Dense and energetic on the palate with smooth tannins and lively acidity.

The vines for Musar Jeune red come from our organically certified vineyards in the western Bekaa Valley.  The 2022 vintage is a blend of Cinsault (50%), Syrah (35%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (15%). The latter two varieties stole the show this year with their deep color and fragrance and the Cinsault, harvested on the 5th of September, was of consistently high quality. 

Musar Jeune red is unfiltered, unoaked and produced in keeping with our non-interventionist, natural wine-making philosophy. The grapes were fermented in September in concrete vats with a temperature range of 27 and 29 degrees Celsius. The wines were blended in February 2023 and then rested in the vats until being bottled during the summer of 2023.
