Lebanon's Bekaa Valley Delivers a Red Blend of Remarkable Depth and Character
Chateau Kefraya is one of Lebanon's most storied estates, farming the high-altitude vineyards of the Bekaa Valley — a region with one of the oldest winemaking histories in the world. The 2020 Chateau Kefraya is a Bordeaux-inspired blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Cabernet Franc, Cinsault, and Mourvèdre: a wine of genuine complexity, Mediterranean character, and elegant structure that consistently overdelivers for its price.
Winemaker Notes
Deep ruby in color with garnet reflections. The nose is remarkably powerful and elegant — an harmonious blend of fresh red fruits, spicy and floral notes, woody and roasted nuances. The second nose reveals cigar box, menthol, licorice, spices, and garrigue through a palette of ripe and slightly candied red fruits. Full-bodied and structured on the palate with a long, layered finish.
