1) Chateau Musar, located in Lebanon, is a superb winery and I've long been a fan of their delicious and exciting wines. A rare opportunity now arises for wine lovers to experience a interesting range of their wines, including multiple vintages of their iconic wines, accompanied by the fine cuisine of Chef Anthony Caturano at Prezza in the North End.
On Wednesday, October 23, starting at 6:30pm, Prezza and Fine Wine Specialist, Dan Michaud of Ruby Wines, invite guests to experience a unique seven-course wine dinner, with 10 offerings from Chateau Musar. It promises to be an epic evening for any wine lover.
The evening kick-offs with a glass of 2022 Jeune Blanc, paired with Short Rib Hummus with spicy harissa, crispy shallots and warm pita bread. The second course will be Wood Grilled Octopus Skewers with smokey romesco sauce, salsa verde and chermoula, paired with glasses of the 2021 Leventine and 2020 Hochar Pere Et File. The third and fourth courses will be Wood Grilled Swordfish with tahini, lemon parsley and cous cous and Lobster, chickpeas, and harissa spiced tomato sauce, and accompanied by three vintages of the amazing Chateau Musar Blanc (which is made from two grapes indigenous to Lebanon), including 1997, 2012 and 2017.
