Lebanon explosive mixture
- Chateau Kefraya, Les Bretèches, 2007, Region: Bekaa Valley, the strains: Cinsault, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Tempranillo, Carignan, Grenache, mourvedre, Country: Lebanon;
As you can see the Lebanese legislation does not restrict too much wine makers in terms of allowable amounts of strains used in wine production. The fact that you use carefully. A wine-or even dwuszczepowe, are rare. - Color: deep purple, which is not surprising, after all of the above actually just a list of wines made from Grenache are in the habit błysnąć us sometimes lighter shade;
- Nose: very intense. Mixture of dark forest fruits. It reminds me a little yogurt-flavored berries, in which the fruit is so much and are so mixed that it is hard to systematically organize them somehow. Although I'll try anything. Certainly blackberries, cherries and a little pepper in the nose hanging. When the wine while ustoi in glass, the initial contact clearly cranberry;
- Taste: Strong tannins effectively dry the palate, while distributing the fruits of almost on the shoulder. While the acidity is still trying to bite occasionally, the fruitiness completely capitulated. I can not look like a weaker tears and I decide to include in this unequal fight. Pouring wine into a decanter in the hope that the fruits of which are so common after all, the aroma, catch a second wind. When decanting the wall of the bottle is a little sediment, but frankly a lot less than I expected. After half an hour the wine almost not at all "odowocowało. Les Bretèches can not help myself! There was only a little blackberry and quite unexpectedly, a lot of wet tobacco;
- Price: EUR 14.75. If someone thought that it is not possible to make wine almost nieowocowego in its style and is in addition to using the 7 kinds of strains, the 2007 Les Bretèches proved that he was wrong. And that's only the third label and the manufacturer had to be a little lighter and more fruit. But for those who like to confront the demanding tannins and do not want to hinder them in the fruit, a great sparring partner.
Lebanese, to fool a little bit too much tropical sun, the vines grow high in the mountains, even at altitudes above 1000 m
