2014 vintage. Bekaa Valley. Mainly Cinsault. Soft and spicy, easy-drinking but has some character. And gets better in the glass. Very good value.

Light ruby color. Nice dried red fruits, mint, black pepper and lots of earthy notes and crushed rock. Very dirty and terroir driven nose. Very dry on the palate. Smooth but very different flavor, red cherry, earthy almost stinky. Kind of disjointed but not bad for $10.99

Very unique. Strong wine that goes well with a red meat or it could be wonderful with roasted lamb! A lot of personality!

Lovely deep red color with light floral smelling notes. Immediate dried fruit, especially cranberry, tasting notes followed by a hint of dark chocolate and allspice

Well balanced with spices and dark berries. Dry finish and lots of tannins. Perfect match with a medium raw beef. Big value for the money.

Med+ garnet med nose bramble, rosemary and thyme and a little bit of paint thinner. Licorice. A strangely cloying and dry tannin given the maturity and high alcohol. I felt like it was a Chateauneuf. #lebanonwine #lebanon #gsm

Earth on the nose, blue fruit on the palate. Finishing with dense tannins. #bekaavalley #lebanon #philly
