Description

A delicious blend of Syrah, Cabernet and Merlot from Syria - not something you see every day. The Bargylus winery is precisely located near the town of Deir Touma, which literally means "Convent of Thomas", not far from the last vestiges of the Crusader era and the famous Saladin. This is a concentrated red with layers of complexity. Deep, plummy fruit dominate the nose with hints of spice and truffle. Full-bodied on the palate, it has an elegance and hint of minerality in the fruit. Tannins are fine, juicy and smooth.

Chateau Bargylus

The Bargylus winery is located near the town of Deir Touma, northwest Syria, which literally means "Convent of Thomas", not far from the last vestiges of the Crusader era and the illustrious Saladin. It is currently Syria’s only surviving commercial winery. Managed by two brothers, Karim and Sandro Saadé, with the assistance of renowned Bordeaux consultant Stéphane Derencourt, they make a distinctive red and a white blend, crafted from Syrah, Cabernet, and Merlot, and Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc respectively.

Mount Bargylus

Domaine de Bargylus lies in Latakia province on the slopes of the Coastal Mountain Range (Mount Bargylus) to the north of Lebanon.
