Chateau Ksara Blanc De Blancs

Winemaking since 1857, Chateau Ksara in the Bekaa Valley is Lebanon's oldest and largest winery. Their Blanc de Blancs is a blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Chardonnay grapes. The Sauvignon and Semillon are treated in stainless steel to retain freshness, whilst the Chardonnay spends four months ageing in French oak  for complexity and texture.

This versatile wine shows crisp acidity, lush fruit and rounded body. The spectrum of flavours delight the palate; Chardonnay gives hazelnut aromas, finesse and elegance, the Sauvignon brings freshness and exotic fruits, and the Semillon shows richness, roundness and length. Try with light appetisers, fresh fish and shellfish. 

Chateau Ksara have an ethos of Tradition, Nobility, and Modernity. They embrace a unique, centuries-old practice of winemaking, as well as implementing the most innovative processes to enhance their wines for contemporary times.  Highly regarded, Chateau Ksara continue to win International Awards each year. Their Bekaa Valley vineyards lie at an average altitude of 1,000 meters with a semi-continental climate. Pesticides and herbicides are not used, so the grapes are grown almost organically. The stony soils are made up of varying measures of chalk, clay and limestone.
