Tasting notes for the Syrah de Nehla 2021 - Sept Winery

  • EYE: Displaying a deep red robe, this Lebanese red wine unfolds like a canvas rich in nuances, reminiscent of the intensity of an autumnal landscape. Its vibrant color, between garnet and ruby, captivates attention, promising a tasting experience that transcends expectations.
  • NOSE: This Syrah distinguishes itself with the complexity of its aromas. Black fruits, such as plum and blackberry, intertwine with spicy notes of pepper and cloves. Subtle accents of leather and cedarwood add an earthy dimension, creating a captivating olfactory tableau.
  • MOUTH: Its velvety texture marries a remarkable gustatory intensity. Flavors of jammy black cherry, dark chocolate, and tobacco unfold gradually, while well-integrated tannins bring a balanced structure. The persistent finish reveals hints of licorice and cocoa, leaving a memorable impression.

 

In short: The Lebanese Syrah de Nehla 2021 from Sept Winery, with its striking visual character and complex aromatic palette, stands at the pinnacle of the local red wines. Its aging potential of 8 to 12 years suggests a harmonious evolution over time. It will beautifully complement dishes such as peppered ribeye, roasted duck breast, venison stew, and a diverse cheese platter.

Lebanese Biodynamic Wines

 

Sept Winery was born out of a deep desire to revive a neglected family land. In 2010, Maher Harb left his flourishing career as a data consultant in France to return to the lands of his forefathers in Nehla, Lebanon. Driven by a burning passion, he planted over 5000 vines there in January 2012. After completing a Master's degree in Wine Management, Maher vinified his very first vintage in 2016 in his garage. Inspired by numerology and in homage to his father, he named his new winemaking venture "Sept", meaning "seven" in French.

The first bottles from Sept Winery hit the market in October 2017, marking the beginning of a remarkable winemaking journey. Production moved to the new cellar built in 2018; a significant milestone for the estate. Guided by his convictions, Maher strictly adheres to biodynamics and viticulture without inputs. His minimalist approach during grape growth and winemaking aims to respect and preserve the natural balance within the vineyard. Sept Winery is now the first and only biodynamic vineyard in Lebanon.

The philosophy of Sept Winery is an unwavering commitment to producing wines that reflect the richness and diversity of the exceptional terroirs of Lebanon. In addition to its biodynamic terroir in Nehla, Maher meticulously selects grapes from different regions of Lebanon. By refusing to blend grapes from different regions, Sept Winery stands out by only producing single-varietal wines that proudly embody the honest expression of each Lebanese terroir, hence the motto "A wine of place".

To preserve the authenticity of the terroir, Sept Winery's natural fermentation process relies on indigenous yeasts, spontaneous fermentation, natural stabilization, minimal filtration, no additives, a minimal dose of sulfur, exclusive use of stainless steel tanks, aging on lees, and skin maceration. The essential mission of Sept Winery is to share the authentic flavors of Lebanon with the entire world, becoming the ambassador for Maher's ancestral heritage and a reference in biodynamic agriculture.
