Wine Tour - Wine Tour in Batroun - Batroun District

  • Batroun Tour and Wine Tasting Experience

    We are heading this time to the beautiful region of Batroun to discover the exquisite wine it has to offer! Before we embark on our wine tour, we'll explore the charming coastal city of Batroun, where we'll discover the vibrant old souk and visit important sites, including the historic Saint Stephen Church.

    During this special tour, we will visit three wineries: Batroun Mountains winery, Ixsir and Adyar wineries.

    We will start our tour in Batroun Mountains winery. It is a family owned and operated winery and vineyards located in the mountainous region of Batroun.
    Their wines and grapes are certified organic by "CCPB" confirming to EU organic standards, and their vineyards consist of eight plots located in six villages on altitudes from 400m to 1500m above sea level.

    Then we will go to Ixsir, one of only two Lebanese producers present at Bordeaux's famous "La Semaine des Primeurs", an event hosted exclusively for the evaluation and tasting of French and international wines. Ixsir was awarded the "Revelation of the Public" for its 2009 Grande Reserve White and the Media and Press award for its 2009 White. On May 11, 2010, IXSIR joined the Union Vinicole du Liban (UVL) and participated in a wine tasting event held in Paris for international wine experts and professionals

    Afterwards, we will go to the monastery of KFIFAN, where you can visit Saint Neemtallah el Hardini and the beatified monk, Estephan Nehmeh.

    Once done, will see the winery of ADYAR, located in the monastery of Kfifan. Adyar was established in 2003, cultivating vineyards in Batroun, Metn and Chouf, and producing unique wines. The vineyards are not exposed to any chemical fertilizers or pesticides, thus giving us high quality organic wines. Adyar produces white, rose and red wines. You will get the chance to taste them during your visit.

    Our tour will end with a well-deserved traditional lunch in one of the best family managed restaurants in Chobtine village.
