Winemaking & Tasting Notes

This wine is a blend of noble varietals and a variety exclusively planted in Lebanon by Karam Wines. Planted in the Jezzine area, between 800 to 1,300 meter elevation, a region known historically for producing exquisite grapes. The low-yield vines are handpicked and vinified using a combination of ancestral skills and upto- date knowledge in the art of winemaking. Harmony between Nature, Earth and Man is delicately displayed in this rare and complex wine, resulting in an aromatic, superbly balanced and structured supple wine with impressive ageing potential.

Food Pairing: Stews, roasts, steaks and hard cheeses

Almaza Pilsner Beer includes delicate aromas of grain and corn waft from the glass. And that’s not really surprising, when you discover that the brewery states “corn makes up to 25%” of the grain bill. But give the beer a few vigorous swirls to bring some of its head back. And you’ll soon discover that it also brings light notes of honey and flora, with grassy hints.

That light, delicate character also carries into Almaza Pilsener Beer’s flavor.

Chateau Ksara Sunset Rose, an intense pink colour with an aroma of red berries and a hint of spiciness, with an initial roundness in the mouth, and finishing with a fresh and vivid taste. Winemaking & maturing Selected from the best vats of red grapes, this wine is obtained by bleeding. After 10 to 14 hours of maceration, fermentation is done at a low temperature (18°C). Once the alcoholic fermentation is completed, the wine is racked-off and sulphured to avoid malolactic fermentation. Once it has stabilised, SUNSET is bottled in the spring, to preserve its ripe fruit flavours. Ageing Better appreciated the first year; it can be kept for up to 2 years in a good cellar. Serving This fresh robust wine, with its slightly spicy aroma, is the ideal accompaniment to Mediterranean or Oriental cuisine. It also complements raw vegetables and cold meat. It should be served chilled (8-10°C) in order to reveal its spicy flavour, freshness and balance.
