Domaine des Tourelles

Lebanon

Domaine des Tourelles is one of the oldest and most highly acclaimed wineries in Lebanon.  Originally founded in 1868 by French adventurer François-Eugène Brun, it was the first commercial winery in ‘modern’ Lebanon.  It was held by the Brun family until 2003 and is now owned by the Issa and Issa el-Khoury families. Winemaker Faouzi Issa has worked with Rhône legend, René Rostaing, and at Château Margaux, combining this experience with his own techniques, including the use of indigenous natural yeasts, to create some fabulous boutique wines.  Join us in tasting his wines all the way from Lebanon!
