Description: Located in the West Bekaa Valley, the large estate of Château Kefraya has been the Bustros family's property for generations. The castle is built starting 1946 on an artificial hill used by the Romans centuries ago to observe their troop movements. Founder and visionary Michel de Bustros undertakes massive works to implant Château Kefraya's vineyards on those magnificent hillsides. A sustainable wine-growing policy allows the vines to flourish, while respecting the terroir's expression. The first bouquet reveals floral notes nuanced by hints of apricot and exotic fruits. The second bouquet is more complex and offers notes of peach and verbena, punctuated with mineral notes. The nose is clear and very elegant with a pleasant aromatic freshness. One the palate the initial impression is full and round. This wine is unctuous, fresh and aromatic. The floral notes are very present and associated with an exotic and mineral contrast.
