Marquis des Beys Cabernet/Syrah 2014

Marquis des Beys Cabernet/Syrah 2014
Bekaa Valley, Lebanon
Exclusively from small parcels of old vine Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, which are 100% manually harvested, this is vinified in concrete vats.  After 10 days of fermentation the wine is blended and then aged for 18 months in French oak barrels. 
It has a deep red garnet hue with an intriguing brambly fruit and spice nose. It’s densely packed with sumptuous flavours of blackcurrants and chocolate with a pure, crunchy, fine core, finishing with fine tannins that help retain its freshness. 
It’s just starting to enter its drinking window, but will continue to develop in complexity over the next 10 to 15 years.  One of Lebanon’s finest reds.
