Domaine des Tourelles Red 2023

LebanonFrom vineyards in the western Bekaa valley at 1050m, this red blends 40% syrah, 40% cabernet sauvignon, 15% cinsault, 5% carignan, from dry farmed vines 15-20 years, rooted in sandy limestone over clay. All was native fermented in concrete vats before blending, and aging in the same for 2 years. Dusky black plum, black raspberry is woven with a stony spice and scented with scrubby herbs. Tannins are firm and bitter edged, building this muscular red for food. *Tasted from magnum, which benefits this for the cellar.Tasted: 22 May 2026Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
