"Led to international prominence by the legendary Serge Hochar in the 1970s, this estate became synonymous with perseverance and international advocacy for Lebanese wine as Hochar boldly promoted funky, Bordeaux-style blends to British drinkers while his vines endured decades of conflict. The estate’s story—vines surviving through war and its charismatic championing abroad—helped shape an enduring narrative about the country’s wines, for better and for worse." - Farrah Berrou
