Made from a blend of Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, this exclusive bottling draws from a dramatic mountain terroir and a site of rare historical significance, once cultivated by the Romans near the Temple of Bacchus in Baalbek. Crafted in small quantities as a special label, Roots stands apart as a focused, collectible expression of place &#8211; powerful yet disciplined, and shaped by altitude, tension, and longevity.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Tasting Notes<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The nose is initially restrained, gradually unfolding into layered, complex aromas with depth and quiet intensity. On the palate, the wine is rich and concentrated, yet finely balanced, with fresh mountain acidity providing lift and precision. Firm structure and polished tannins carry through to a long, composed finish.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Winemaking<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Grapes are sourced from low-yielding vines rooted in rocky, shallow, nutrient-poor soils at 1,600\u20131,800 metres altitude. Farming is carried out without mechanisation or pesticides, relying on cold winters and strong summer winds to naturally limit disease pressure. Vinification follows traditional methods aimed at preserving the integrity of the site, with ageing in a combination of French and American oak barrels. Produced and bottled at the estate in Ainata.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Food Pairing<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Best enjoyed alongside rich, full-flavoured dishes such as slow-cooked meats, grilled lamb, aged cheeses, or charcuterie. Decant for around 30 minutes and serve at approximately 15 \u00b0C to allow the wine\u2019s structure, freshness, and aromatic complexity to fully unfold.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Cellaring Potential<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Already compelling in its youth, Roots 2023 has the structure, acidity, and concentration to evolve gracefully over time. While approachable now with decanting, it will reward 8\u201312 years of careful cellaring, gaining additional depth and nuance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Roots 2023 is a high-altitude, limited-edition red wine from Ainata, Lebanon, produced by Terroir de Bacchus in collaboration with Solo Spirits, sourced from some of the highest vineyards in the Middle East, rising to 1,800 metres above sea level.
