The wine region of Mount Lebanon

Merwah and Obeidi indigenous signature whites (presumed ancestors of Chardonnay and Semillon): ample and complex with notes of citrus, white peach, dried fruit, flowers, honey and a limestone mineral touch — unique millennial identities.

The word of the wine: Oenologist
Specialist in wine-making techniques. It is a profession and not a passion: one can be an oenophile without being an oenologist (and the opposite too!). Formerly attached to the Faculty of Pharmacy, oenology studies have become independent and have their own university course. Learning to make wine requires a good chemical background but also, increasingly, a good knowledge of the plant. Some oenologists work in laboratories (analysis). Others, the consulting oenologists, work directly in the properties.
