The wine region of Mount Lebanon
Lebanese coastal mountain range separating the Mediterranean from the Bekaa, vineyards at 800-1,700 m in terraces, high-altitude Mediterranean climate with wide temperature swings. 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. Dense Cabernet, Cinsault, Syrah reds. Sub-regions Batroun, Kesrouan, Metn.
The word of the wine: Phenolic ripeness
A distinction is made between the ripeness of sugars and acids and the ripeness of tannins and other compounds such as anthocyanins and tannins, which will bring structure and colour. Grapes can be measured at 13° potential without having reached this phenolic maturity. Vinified at this stage, they will give hard, astringent wines, without charm.
