Vinorandum rated wines from Bekaa Valley


Bekaa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Bekaa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Château St Thomas, Bekaa Valley, Lebanon
2015 2014
Cabernet Sauvignon (85%)Merlot (10%)Syrah (5%)
“Tasted with almost 10 years of age to it. Classic Cabernet nose with blackberry leaf, ceder, dark bramble fruit. Still young, but intriguingly complex. Chocolate, smoke and ginger dominate the palate initially. With time it opens up, blackens, with notes of prune, balsam and menthol emerging through carefully deployed oak. Long, dusty finish.”
92 Paul Caputo
Bekaa Valley “Château Musar”
Bekaa Valley “Château Musar”
Château Musar, Bekaa Valley, Lebanon
2011 1998
“Ethereal bouquet. Delicately perfumed, dried herb and potpourri. Some brawny red fruit juxtaposed with earthy undertones. More tertiary aromas of dried rose petal, cedar, sweet spice. The palate is soft and moorish, but still well structured with life ahead of it. A delicious Musar in the classic style still drinking exceptionally well.”
94 Paul Caputo
Bekaa Valley Obeidy

Obeidy (100%)
“Muscat character on the nose, showing delicate notes of tropical fruit. Very low acidity, yet still balanced and fairly fresh. Interesting take on this fairly obscure variety.”
Paul Caputo
