Lebanon is one of the world’s oldest wine-producing regions, with a winemaking tradition that stretches back thousands of years.

The Bekaa Valley sits around 1,000 metres above sea level, giving it a climate that suits quality viticulture. Warm days, cool nights and long, dry summers help grapes ripen with balance and depth. Heavy winter rains keep the soils refreshed and support healthy vineyards year after year.

Lebanon’s modern wineries blend heritage with innovation. Château Oumsiyat is a great example, crafting wines for the UK market that showcase the character of this historic region. Their range includes red, white and rosé wines, as well as Lebanon’s only Assyrtiko – a rare bottling planted in one small plot in the Bekaa Valley.

We continue to expand our Lebanese range from trusted partners across the region. Lebanese wines offer freshness, spice, structure and a true taste of the Eastern Mediterranean, making them a favourite among adventurous drinkers.
