Château Qanafar 2014 MAGNUM

This topper of the domain Qanafar is a powerful red wine that is complete in all areas. It has excellent aging potential and is a prime example of how modern red wine from Lebanon should taste. The vineyards for this wine are planted on southwestern flanks, with mostly Syrah and a little Merlot. After manual harvesting, the wine is aged in French oak barrels for 12 months. In the nose we get scents of ripe cassis, blackberry marmalade and a touch of licorice. The strong character is immediately apparent in the glass and the taste of ripe blue fruits, green pepper and a light vanilla bourbon comes to the fore. On top of that, tannins and acids that form a perfect marriage, this wine makes us long for more… Cheers!
