Description
Chateau Musar was the first producer in Lebanon to achieve organic certification for its vineyards in 2006. Most are located in the Bekaa Valley, cradled between two mountain ranges running parallel to Lebanon’s Mediterranean coastline. Vines have been cultivated here for at least 6,000 years.
Flanked by snow-covered mountains, and nestled (3,000 feet) above sea level, Chateau the Musar vineyards were ‘organic’ by default. All the grapes are hand-harvested by local Bedouins between August and October. In the Winery, ambient yeasts are used for fermentation and little sulphur is used.
Fermented and aged for 6 to 9 months in French oak barrels from the forest of Nevers, the wines are bottled a year after the harvest and released for sale two years later. Aromas of strawberries, apples and grapefruits with soft floral notes. The palate is well-balanced with white fruits and delicate acidity.
This wine is an excellent accompaniment a to Seafood, Olives and Provencal Dishes
