Description
The Terroir
Chateau Kefraya ‘s vineyards stretch over slopes in the Bekaa Valley, which are 1000 meters above the Mediterranean Sea. The soil here is rich in Clay-limestone, chalk as well as sandy and gravelly soils. The vines grow in the sun-drenched vineyards and are not irrigated. Significant temperature differences between day and night ensure perfect ripening of the grapes and optimal harvesting conditions.
In addition to soil diversity, Château Kefraya uses a wide and exciting range of grape varieties in its blends, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Chardonnay and Viognier, Carménère, Marselan and Muscat à Petits Grains.
In addition, Chateau Kefraya also grows native varieties such as Obeidi, Merwah and Mekssessé (white grapes) and also revives old Lebanese red grapes such as Assouad Karech and Asmi Noir.
All wines from the winery are vegan. Much of the vineyard is already certified organic.
A sustainable winegrowing policy allows the vines to flourish, while respecting the expression of the terroir.
