A young bright raspberry red. Lovely nose: very attractive, with red & black fruits, and a nice floral character. Attractive, open palate. There are some quite firm tannins, which give it a bit of a raw feel. There is some nice character in there, but I think it needs time to come out (assuming it's going to come out).

Very light on the palate with a lacking of body. A sweetness present behind a very metallic taste. Lebanon is producing some nice wine,especially Ksara (check out the "Le Souverain 150 Cent Cinquantenaire"), but this one just is so-so at best. ADDED NOTE: 4 days later, the remaining glass left in the bottle with the cork put in, the wine was actually significantly better. Go figure...

Waited too long for this, it didn’t have the structure to age this long, greatly diminished, disappointing. Barely drinkable.
