The
Chateau Qanafar Mago Red is a full-bodied, fruit-forward red wine from the Bekaa Valley in Lebanon, known for its spicy notes and aging potential. The wine's name, Mago, pays homage to an ancient Phoenician agricultural writer on viticulture.
Wine Profile
- Winery: Château Qanafar, a family-owned winery known for using only grapes from its own vineyards.
- Region: Bekaa Valley, Lebanon. Grapes are grown at an average altitude of 1200m.
- Grape Varieties: A blend that typically includes Cinsault, Syrah, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The blend can vary slightly by vintage.
- Aging: The wine is aged for 12 months in French oak barrels. It is also neither fined nor filtered, so decantation is recommended.
- Tasting Notes: Reviewers describe it as having intense aromas and flavors of ripe dark fruits like blackcurrant and plum, with notes of spice, light oak, smoke, and white pepper. It has mid-to-velvety tannins, good acidity, and a long finish.
- Awards: The wine has received awards, including Gold for the 2018 vintage. Certain vintages of the Chateau Qanafar (not specifically Mago, but the main line) have also been highly rated by critics like Gilbert & Gaillard and Decanter.
- Food Pairing: It pairs well with strongly flavored meats such as lamb, game, and pork steak, as well as rich cheeses and Lebanese mezze.
