Château Musar

シャトー・ミュザール

1930年にガストン・ホシャールにより設立。紀元前4500年頃にフェニキア人によりレバノンにワインやブドウが伝えられ6千年以上ものワイン造りの歴史があります。畑は海抜約1000メートルの高地に位置し夜の気温が低く、また夏と冬の寒暖差が大きいためブドウの生育期間が長いのが特徴。シャトー・ミュザールはレバノンで初めてオーガニック栽培の認証を取り、白ワイン用には古い土着品種でシャルドネによく似たオバイデとセミヨンの祖先と言われるメルワーを栽培しています。シャトー・ミュザール・レッドは世界で高い評価を受け、2代目のセルジュ・ホシャールは英国デキャンター誌が1984年から始めたマン・オブ・ザ・イヤーを世界で最初に受賞しました。

In 1930, Gaston Hochar founded Château Musar, inspired by Lebanon's 6,000-year winemaking tradition and his travels in Bordeaux.
The wines of Château Musar are unique expressions from a country with an ancient wine-making culture, as vines have been cultivated from Lebanon’s high altitude for over 6,000 years. From around 4,500 BC, the sea-faring Phoenicians (ancestors of the modern Lebanese) distributed their wines and vines throughout the Mediterranean, traveling as far as Cadiz (and possibly beyond) in their robust cedar boats.
The grapes used to make Château Musar Red are Cabernet Sauvignon, Cinsault, and Carignan from long-established, mature vines yielding a maximum of 30 to 35 hectolitres per hectare. The ancient and indigenous white grapes of Obaideh and Merwah, which prefer slightly cooler conditions to the reds, are grown in vineyards at even higher altitudes on the mountain slopes, some 1,500 meters above sea level.
Every wine of Château Musar is produced naturally with ‘non-interventionist’ winemaking philosophy and the winery was the first in Lebanon to implement organically certified viticulture. Having declared to his father about wanting to make his own wine, Serge Hochar became Château Musar winemaker in 1959 and spent 18 years perfecting the 'formula' for Château Musar's Red and was chosen as Decanter Magazine's first 'Man of the Year' in 1984 for his dedication to producing superb quality wines during Lebanon's Civil War (1975-1990).
