is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Crafted in Lebanon’s historic Bekaa Valley, Domaine des Tourelles’ 2020 Cinsault Vieilles Vignes is a beautiful example of the potential of this indigenous varietal. The old vines, grown in high-altitude vineyards, benefit from the valley’s cool nights and sunny days, creating a wine that is both fresh and complex, with the structure to age gracefully.
The 2020 vintage opens with aromas of ripe red berries—strawberry, raspberry—complemented by floral notes and a hint of spice. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with silky tannins and bright acidity that provides balance and freshness. The minerality from the Bekaa Valley terroir adds a layer of complexity, leading to a clean, lingering finish with subtle earthy and floral nuances.
This Cinsault pairs beautifully with grilled meats, mezze, or roasted vegetables, offering versatility and elegance for a wide range of dishes. Whether enjoyed now or cellared for a few more years, Domaine des Tourelles’ Cinsault Vieilles Vignes 2020 is a refined and expressive Lebanese red, showcasing the beauty of the region’s terroir.
