Why Thouraya? |
God blessed me with three children. My second born is Thouraya, my only daughter, after whom this bottle was named. “Thouraya” (Arabic noun: ثريــا (represents a constellation of stars. Much like my daughter’s character, this Cabernet Sauvignon is bold and speaks for itself. It is quite popular in my hometown of Jezzine in Southern Lebanon since the locals appreciate it to weather the harsh winters. – Captain Habib Karam |

Winemaking & Tasting Notes |
Grown on the hot, dry, and gravely soil of the Jezzine mountain ridge slopes, towering at 1,300-meter altitude; this handpicked Cabernet Sauvignon has been vinified with proud ancestral skill, giving it a peppery rich bouquet of dried prunes, smoke and dark chocolate aromas. Its rounded tannins and balanced structure are a prelude to its excellent length. This complex, opaque and harmonious wine is suitable for ageing or present enjoyment. |
