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

Chateau Ksara Blanc De L'Observatoire is intensely aromatic on the nose, with soft rich fruit, a zesty palate and a long, very fresh finish. This wine seduces with its finesse, elegance and floral aroma.

Chateau Ksara Blanc De L'Observatoire is an interesting blend of aromatic white grapes: 45% Sauvignon Blanc, 35% Muscat and 20% Clairette. The Sauvignon Blanc gives this wine its finesse and elegance, the Muscat its subtle flowery aroma and the Clairette its fruitiness, roundness and rich taste. Each wine is matured separately for three months in French oak casks, before being blended and bottled.

Chateau Ksara's Merwah is a profound and ancient expression of Lebanon's formidable terroir. Made from 60-year-old vines, grown on the terraced hill of the tiny, North Lebanese village of Douma at over 1,500 meters, giving freshness and flavor intensity to the fruit. It is hand harvested at very low yields in the mid-October and vinified with minimal intervention.

The Merwah's rounded character and inherent complexity allows it to be enjoyed alone or with food.
