Chateau Ksara Rouge Bekaa Valley 2019 – Tasting Notes
Vibrant aromas and a long, elegant finish
Chateau Ksara Rouge 2019 opens with intense aromas of ripe raspberries and blackcurrants, lifted by a delicate hint of vanilla from its oak ageing. On the palate, this wine is rich and powerful, offering layers of red and black fruit, with subtle notes of spice, leather, cedar, and a touch of Mediterranean warmth. The smooth, balanced tannins give structure while evolving gracefully into complex leathery and cedary nuances over time. The finish is long, elegant, and refined, making it a superb choice for pairing with roast meats, mature cheeses, and Mediterranean cuisine.

| Winery | Château Ksara is Lebanon’s oldest and largest winery, and its establishment laid the foundations for the country’s modern wine industry. It is in the heart of the Bekaa Valley, Lebanon’s pre-eminent wine-producing region. Winemaking began in 1857 when the estate was inherited by Jesuit monks, who began farming a 27-hectare plot of land where they produced Lebanon’s first dry red wine. In 1973, the Vatican encouraged its missions and monasteries worldwide to divest any commercial ventures, at which point Château Ksara already had an annual production of 1.5 million bottles. Identifying Ksara’s potential, a consortium of forward-thinking local Lebanese businessmen purchased the estate and invested in the vineyards and the cellars. Ksara has a broad portfolio, including French-inspired blends from the French colonial era and more modern styles, including a white from the ancient native grape Merwah. Today, they are among the best-known and loved Lebanese producers in the UK market and are a staple of any top Lebanese restaurant list. |
