Production

Small parcels of old vine Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon are 100% manually harvested. Traditional vinification in concrete vats, after 10 days of fermentation the wine is blended and then aged for 18 months in French oak barrels (1/3 new, 1/3 first use, 1/3 second use).

Tasting notes

Stylish and sophisticated, this really highlights the potential for quality in Lebanon. Produced from specially selected parcels of Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, it has a deeply red garnet hue with darkly intriguing brambly fruit and spice nose. It’s densely packed with sumptuous flavours of blackcurrants and chocolate with a pure, crunchy, fine core. It’s very more-ish with fine tannins that help retain its freshness.

Food match

Herb roasted lamb shank or vegetarian lentil smokey aubergine stew.
