2018 vintage. Another great effort from this tiny estate that started out as a hobby for oncologist Fady Geara. This beautiful monovarietal Cabernet Franc is produced from vineyards in the village of Aoura, in Northern Lebanon, at 850 meters of altitude. Intense perfume of black and red fruits, oriental spices, mint, and a hint of vanilla. Layers of concentrated juicy fruit and spices, balanced by fresh mountain wine acidity and velvety tannins. Long, fresh finish. Highly recommended. Abv. 14 %. — 8 months ago
Drinking beautifully in 2022. A true Santa Rita Hills beauty with dark fruit and bold acidity. — 3 years ago

2017 vintage. — 9 months ago
Cigar, smoke, and fig, slightly aromatic, with an acidic and bitter finish. Not my favorite on its own (prefer a smoother, semi-sweet sherry) but balanced and smoothed out when paired with a smoked and aged Gouda and Cheddar cheese. — 10 months ago
Fruity, nice and smooth. 1776 — 4 years ago

Plenty of tannins left. 25bucks. Those were the days! 14%| Quite classic. Browne tinge. Needs at least 2-3 hours of air. Quite harsh and astringent. Roses, earthy and dusty, very dry. Hint of truffles. - Not super exciting at first (15min) so wait. Will last another 10 years - but i do worry about the fruit component if you need space in your cellar - i would suggest drink up. I will. Some folks tend to hype these wines i don’t - after all this is their most basic version with a large production volume. Total volume is 500,000 bottles a year at this cooperative. My guess they to make a lot of this one. — 5 days ago
