Bekaa Valley Red Blend 2000

2000 vintage. Ancient. Otherworldly. Eternal and undying. The ultimate vampire wine. $101 a bottle resto cost. Picked up a 6-pack and we’ll see how it does. You either get it or you don’t. 7.8.26. — 7 days ago

I used to sell @ChateauMusar to unsuspecting customers at an airport wine bar with a forward thinking mgr.
Snuck it into flights of three samples and then watched as whole glasses were ordered and minds widened.
Now…I’m taken aback at what these beauties command.

@Daniel Bloom For the pricing of a 25 year old wine that kicks absolute tuckus and blows minds, it’s ridiculously affordable.

Domaine des Tourelles

Cabernet Sauvignon 40%, Syrah 40%, Cindault 15% l, and Cardigan 5%. High altitude vineyards ( 1050 m). Aged 24 months in concrete. Cherries, berries and spices. The tannins have a little rough edge, but the wine has character and would be a great match for many Lebanese dishes. Abv. 13%. — 23 days ago

Château Kefraya

Les Coteaux Red Blend 2019

In Margarita Island, Venezuela, while celebrating the “Extraction”. Nice surprise. Never tasted a Lebanese wine. Fruity aromas and acidity in harmony. Good for Arabian meats. I would repeat — 6 months ago

Levantine De Musar Red Blend 2022

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of two days. Best on Day 1. The 2022 “Levantine de Musar” pours a deep ruby/purple color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of mostly tart, red and black fruit: blackberries, raspberries, cherry, some anise, and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium. Overall, a fresh and easy expression Musar that’s great with a variety of fare. Drink now through 2032…but best fresh. — 7 months ago

2022 vintage. Cinsault is rather rare as a single varietal, and this is a great way to discover the varietal. Light, transparent ruby red. Spicy, flowery nose. Fresh and delicate, even with 14% abv. — 21 days ago

Cuvée Blanc White Blend 2009

Golden, beautifully matured with all the love you could squeeze out of fresh sour apricots, syrupy canned peaches, perfumed black cherries, and all the things that oxygen brings.

Apricots first, then a lifted VA note that folds into a nutty sticky caramel apple thing.

It's more perfumed and full of acid and life then you'd ever imagine despite a tired ale color. Amazing stuff.

Very similar to the 2016 I reviewed - offers a fantastic value for an old school Bordeaux Claret style w/an extra little southern French accent… made in Bekaa Valley - stood up well to grilled ribeyes — 3 years ago
