Tasty. Dark, dusty red. Notes of black pepper, a little bit of chocolate & pomegranate. Medium bodied. Somewhat sweeter than my usual but has a nice tannic finish. Had with hashweh & muhamara, paired well with the food but would also be great on its own.

Love it. One of the most interesting Grenache I’ve had. A rich strawberry, guava core with a lingering cigar ashtray finish. Very well balanced.

A berry bomb for a nose. Bright red raspberries and cherries dominated the pallet. High acidity and strong tannins on this young Lebanese wine. Reminded me of a young Barolo. Needs time but very pleasant. Drink with fat rich food. That creates a nice pallet experience
