Domaine des Tourelles Bekka White 2021

From: Vallée de la Bekaa - Liban, Lebanon
Blend: Viognier, Chardonnay, Obeidi (an indigenous grape) and Muscat d’Alexandria

Taste: The 2021 Tourelles Blanc presents a harmonious bouquet of ripe peaches, brined green apples, and delicate white flowers, such as jasmine and honeysuckle. Subtle undertones of fresh herbs and a hint of wet stone reveal the terroir's unique character.
Upon first taste, the wine delivers a lively and refreshing acidity that balances the rich fruit flavors. The palate is treated to a medley of stone fruits, citrus zest, and green apple, intertwined with nuances of white pepper and a touch of honey. The wine's medium body and well-integrated minerality contribute to its overall structure, while the finish is long, crisp, and satisfying.

Pairing: The 2021 Tourelles Blanc's versatile nature allows it to pair beautifully with a wide range of dishes. Light appetizers, such as a fresh green salad topped with goat cheese and toasted almonds, accentuate the wine's vibrant acidity. For seafood lovers, a plate of grilled shrimp or seared scallops with a citrus herb dressing complements the wine's fruity and herbal notes.
