- Tasting Note: A Cabernet-based blend of enormous charm, as warm in the mouth as its Lebanese homeland, with blackberries, blackcurrants, a dash of green pepper and a slice or two of strawberry.
- Food Matching: The fruit characters of the wine will pair perfectly with roasted red meats.
- Vineyard: Named after the wide range of altitudes of the 110 hectares of prime calcareous marl terroir which IXSIR uses across the Lebanon between 800 and 1700 metres above sea level.
- Vinification: Manual night harvests in crates of 18kg and transport to the ultra sleek hi-tech winery in Basbina in temperature-controlled trucks. Gentle crushing and de-stalking. Temperature controlled fermentation in stainless steel. Restricted ageing period in used oak barrels.
