Profile & Story

Domaine des Tourelles, founded in 1868, is one of the oldest and most acclaimed estates of Lebanon's Bekaa Valley and calls itself ‘a green winery since 1868.’ In 2014 it set out to revive Cinsault by seeking out very old vines, over fifty years of age; this bottling is 100% Cinsault, fermented in concrete tanks with wild yeasts, giving a supple wine that reflects the Bekaa terroir and can age for several years.

Tasting Notes

Supple and elegant — a fresh, old-vine Bekaa Cinsault with bright red-berry fruit and a savory, earthy edge.

Pairing Recommendation

Enjoy with grilled lamb and other Levantine grilled meats, mezze and mildly spiced dishes.
