Chateau Musar included as a "Great Green Wine" in Wine Spectator's Sommelier Roundtable
A Sommelier Roundtable in Wine Spectator Magazine recently discussed “Green Wines” that are the real deal.
Sommeliers … want to recommend well-made bottles from producers they respect. Who's on the vanguard of going green? We asked nine Wine SpectatorRestaurant Award–winning wine pros which pours from around the world they recommend to eco-conscious—or skeptical—drinkers.
Daniel Tucker Jr., wine director at new 2020 Best of Award of Excellence winner Elements in Princeton, N.J. selected our elite Lebanese wine - Chateau Musar - his pick.
Chateau Musar! The family estate was founded in 1930. They are located in one of the oldest winemaking areas in the world, Bekaa Valley in Lebanon. The family has always produced wines naturally with minimal intervention ... with their high-elevation vineyards along the mountain slopes. It was officially certified organic [for its vineyards] in 2006, the first in Lebanon to do so.
