An Evening with Ralph Hochar of Chateau Musar
Without question the history of Chateau Musar is unique. Gaston Hochar returned from Bordeaux highly influenced by Chateau Langoa-Barton and decided to open his own vineyard back in 1930.
It continued to produce first class wines in the western Bekaa Valley, Lebanon, in spite of the fifteen year civil war.
Decanter awarded their very first ‘Man of the Year’ to Serge Hochar in 1984, so highly were his wines prized.
Our evening is hosted by Ralph Hochar, third generation of a very special family. Join us to hear more about Chateau Musar, where you will taste not only the legendary reds, but his ‘jeune rouge’ and his lesser known whites.
