Description
Winery
The large estate of Château Kefraya is located in the West Bekaa Valley, which has been the property of the Bustros family for generations. The castle was built from 1946 on an artificial hill that was used centuries ago by the Romans to observe their troop movements.
The first vines were planted in 1951 and 1979. Despite the Lebanese civil war between 1975-1990, the family has managed to produce quality wine with its own grapes from its own vineyards. In the years 1982 and 1983 “Les Coteaux de Kefraya” wines won the first international medals and Château Kefraya began to export its wines to France.
In 1997, American wine critic Robert Parker awarded “Comte de M 1996” 91 out of 100 points, qualifying it as “A great achievement in Lebanon”.
Today Château Kefraya is present in more than 40 countries on the five continents.
