This shows class on the nose: dried apricots, wax, honey, cedar and caramel. The aromas might remind you of a Bordeaux Blanc but it is definitely more similar to old white Rioja on the palate. This is a jewel; a great wine with a deep and multilayered complexity of flavour and a refined mouthfeel; very balanced. My best mark – 96 – was given on the fourth day after opening the bottle. It started to fade only on the seventh day. Drinking Window 2020 - 2053. ... More details

Country: Lebanon

Lebanon has been producing wines for over five thousand years, and was once home to the Phoenicians – perhaps the first great viticulturists whose influence spread all over Europe and the middle east, and resulted in many of the great wine regions we know and love today. Lebanese wine culture in the modern age in mainly centered in the eastern part of the country, where the climatic conditions and terroir is ideal for growing a wide range of native and imported grape varietals. Indeed, along the Syrian border, wineries have long been cultivating many fine French grape varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache, which make up for a large proportion of all the grapes grown in the country. Lebanese wineries are certainly on the increase, as more demand for the country's wines has led to a relative boom in viticulture over recent years, with the number of wineries doubling in the last decade.
