Chateau Kefraya in Beirut, Beirut, Lebanon | Restaurant

Situated in the heart of Lebanon, in the Bekaa valley, Château Kefraya expands its 300 hectares domain to the foothills of the Mount Lebanon, 20 km to the south of the city of Chtaura. Both the vineyard, planted in a succession of terraces and hills having very often abrupt slopes, at an altitude of 950 to 1100 meters on clayey, limy and stony soils, together with an exceptional sun lighting â?? six to seven months a year without any precipitation â?? and the winery, located in the middle of the domain, fitted with a highly sophisticated equipment allowing the manually gathered grapes to be conveyed, picked off from the bunch, vinified and pressured very carefully, allowed the elaboration of a special and authentic wine, personal to Château Kefraya.
Starting from nothing, an image was built that would have needed, in similar cases, decades or even centuries. But the vineyards of Château Kefraya are not yet fifty years old ; and its winery is barely twenty years old! Meanwhile, its wines acquired their nobility titles in Lebanon and abroad. The quality of its products has been recognized and certified by the number and the prestige of the awards they received in international blind-tasting competitions. Gold, silver and bronze medals, without mentioning the trophies, the flattering articles in specialized newspapers and magazines, specially the most famous among them edited by the â??Pope of Wineâ? Robert Parker, who entitled his text â??An amazing accomplishment in Lebanonâ?, crowned the efforts that began in 1951 through the breaking up of the grounds, the dynamiting of rocks which were infesting soils that had never produced anything since the day of the creation and the plantation of Lebanonâ??s largest vineyard.
