About this wine

Domaine des Tourelles Vielles Vignes Carignan Domaine des Tourelles have a 50 year old block of Carignan in their Amik vineyard in the Bekka Valley. The fruit from here provides an excellent component for the acclaimed Domaine des Tourelles Red, but winemaker Faouzi believed it could produce great wine in it’s own right. This first vintage highlights his belief in the project.

The wine only sees concrete during production, being both fermented and aged for 12 months in his old but perfectly formed tanks.

Tasting notes

The nose has an exotic mix of ripe fig, bright cranberry and raspberry fruit with notes of liquorice, it’s lifted and pronounced. The plate had more beautifully ripe red fruit characters, alongside lively fig and date notes, the acidity perfectly balances the generous flavours and leaves a pure, clean finish.

Food match

Marinated Mediterranean spiced meats, grilled vegetables. BBQs. Captivated by Lebanese Wines!? Domaine des Tourelles Marquis des Beys Syrah Cabernet 2014 is another of our favorites! Don't miss a thing! Follow us for updates, news, and tasting tips, on Facebook or Instagram.
