![]() The valley is currently controlled by Hezbollah and winemaker Serge Hochar describes Lebanese winemaking in one word: chaos. Even while dealing with such non-Napa pests as mortars and shelling, production was only interrupted in 19. The Bekaa Valley is also one of the most dangerous areas in the world and a hot-bed of regional conflict, especially so during Lebanon’s Civil War. The Phoenicians introduced viticulture to the Bekaa Valley 6,000 years ago it was so renowned for its wines that the Romans erected a temple in honor of Bacchus there in 150 AD.

Musar doesn’t publish the exact proportions but the Rouge is predominantly Cinsaut and Cabernet Sauvignon with a lesser amount of Carignan.Īll self-respecting wine geeks should try Château Musar at least once. It may also contain a little Syrah and Mourvèdre. The 1991 Château Musar Rouge I tasted is blend of the Rhone variety Cinsaut, along with the Bordeaux biggie Cabernet Sauvignon and the Laguedoc workhorse Carignan (which is also a minor Rhone variety).

I can imagine that most of the other Rhone-style wines will be from new world regions, especially given the vast choice now available in California.
