The wine of monasteries

As is known worldwide, winemaking is a deeply rooted monastic tradition. The monks of the Lebanese Maronite Order take great pride in continuing this prestigious heritage to this day, offering consumers a noble and unique wine.

Adyar is a unique Lebanese winery managed by monks of the Maronite Order, spread across various monasteries in Lebanon. The winery is renowned for its strong commitment to organic farming and sustainability. Adyar produces wines from grapes sourced from different monastery vineyards, each with its own microclimate and unique terroir. This results in wines with distinct and diverse flavors, reflecting the rich tradition of Lebanese winemaking.

Their production includes a wide range of red, white, and rosé wines, often made from indigenous Lebanese grape varieties such as Obeideh and Merwah, alongside international varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. The monks at Adyar adhere to a philosophy of minimal intervention in the winemaking process, which highlights the natural expression of the terroir.

Adyar is not just a winery but also an initiative that prioritizes social, ecological, and economic sustainability. Their approach supports local communities and contributes to the preservation of Lebanon's natural resources. This makes their wines not only of high quality but also socially responsible.
