Chateau Oumsiyat harvest their grapes for their Jaspe from their Bekaa Valley vineyard at an altitude of 1000m, with calcareous-clay soils.An extended ripening period, concentrates flavours and aromas. A harmonious blend of Cinsault, Tempranillo, Merlot and Syrah which each bring their own qualities to the wine during the winemaking process. Once blended it’s gently filtered prior to bottling.
Intense and aromatic aromas of wild red and black fruits overlaid with hints of black pepper spice. Well structured on the palate, with well integrated tannins enveloping the rich fruit through to a long finish. Try with lamb, beef, game or charcuterie.
Passion and heritage has been passed down through the Bou Sleiman family for four generations. They blend respect for local tradition with modern techniques to craft contemporary wines, often a fusion of Old World and New World. The grapes are grown in the 78 hectare vineyard, situated at over 1,000 metres elevation in the beautiful Bekaa Valley. The altitude, microclimate and soils combine in this ancient terroir to produce fresh wines with a very Mediterranean feel.
