Atibaia White
WINERY
Atibaia is a family craft winery located in the mountains of Smar Jbeil, overviewing Batroun. The smallest in Lebanon, it is dedicated to producing one red wine and one white wine, in limited quantities. The winery makes its home in a 17th century rustic house with lush surroundings.
VINEYARDS
Our own vineyards are spread throughout the Batroun area, with altitudes stretching from 400 to 600 meters and over a mosaic of terroirs. They are lovingly cared for by our team, mainly family members, and every single detail is rigorously controlled.
WINEMAKING
Manually harvested, only the most qualitative grapes are selected in the vineyard, then sorted twice, including once on a vibrating table. At constant and regulated temperature, each grape variety independently of the other. Assembled before bottled. Aging for 8 months in French oak barrels of two wines for Chardonnay.
TASTING NOTES
Between Chardonnay and Viognier my heart Balances. Fruity yes discreetly, Floral yes finely, Buttery yes delicately, Woody yes slightly, it is a direct invitation to appreciate what mother nature offers us.
SERVING
Chardonnay imposes itself on the palate with hazelnuts and honey, the final note is full and round allowing this cuvée to harmoniously accompany your white meats and your fish. Or with enjoying your favourite cheeses.
Serving temperature 10-13 °C
