The Ksara winery was originally the site of a medieval fortress (ksar in Arabic) and the grapevines that were planed in the early 18th century still flourish. in 1857 Jesuit Priests ran the winery and it was taken over by its present owners in 1972. There are 2km of tunnels used to mature the wine. I bought Ksark (Arak is the Lebonese national drink - very like Pernod).
The 2 guys Julia is standing with at the wine tasting are Australian. They were a lot of fun!
