  Chateau Ksara

  Chateau Ksara — Lebanon's oldest winery & Roman cave cellars Save the most unique and most memorable for last. Chateau Ksara is Lebanon's oldest winery, founded by Jesuit monks in 1857, and its most special feature is utterly unlike anything at the previous two estates — 2 kilometres of ancient Roman cave cellars discovered beneath the winery by the Jesuits in the 19th century, where wine ages naturally at a constant temperature year-round. Walking through these fascinating ancient tunnels is a truly special experience that visitors of all ages find wonderfully memorable — part wine tour, part history lesson, entirely delightful. The tasting that follows showcases Ksara's iconic Cabernet-Syrah blends, crisp Blanc de Blancs, and beloved Sunset Rosé — a fitting and enjoyable close to a wonderful day in the Bekaa.
