Drinking Window: 2020 - 2023
A blend of Clairette (30%), Muscat (30%), Obeidy (30%) and Sauvignon Blanc (10%) this hails from Lebanon’s famous Bekaa Valley and is punchy and approachable. The Muscat’s floral, tropical aromas (nectarine, pineapple) dance briefly on the palate before being swept away by a lemon acidity and wet stone minerality. Long with a clean, brisk finish.
