An elegant and terroir-expressive Syrah from Sept in Lebanon — dense and light at the same time, with a lingering finish of fresh tannins, fragrant and true to its Bekaa Valley soil in a way that makes this one of the most distinctive Lebanese reds available.
Tasting Notes
Elegant and fragrant on the nose with dark berry fruit, violet, and a savoury, peppery note that is classic Syrah. Dense but light on the palate — a combination that requires biodynamic farming and real restraint to achieve. Fresh tannins and a lingering finish mark this as a Syrah of real precision rather than extraction. Terroir-expressive in the best sense.
