Spontaneously fermented on wild Lebanese yeasts, the result is a supple wine that beautifully reflects the terroir of the Bekaa Valley, with an aging potential of several years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is one of the wines that features in Margaret Rand’s book ‘101 Wine to Try Before You Die’. A must-have when dining on those aromatic and heart dishes from the eastern Mediterranean and North Africa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eNeither heavy nor light, it is simply beautifully balanced with layers of complexity. An exotic profile of dried figs, anise ripe plums are supported by earthy undertones in a wonderfully individual wine that truly reflects the Beqaa valley’s unique terroir.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOrigin: \u003c\/b\u003eBekaa Valley, Lebanon\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlend:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cinsault\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine des Tourelles","offers":[{"title":"75cl","offer_id":57293898613114,"sku":"CT0523RA","price":22.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/7229\/0498\/files\/2021-domaine-des-tourelles-vieilles-vignes-cinsault-caviste-wine-619258.jpg?v=1744098586","url":"https:\/\/caviste.co.uk\/products\/2023-domaine-des-tourelles-vieilles-vignes-cinsault","provider":"Caviste Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
