Made from Assyrtiko with a small touch of Sauvignon Blanc, it opens with lemon zest, grapefruit, white peach and blossom, before flint, spice and a salty, mouth-watering edge begin to appear. It is bright, floral and sharply refreshed by the altitude of the Bekaa Valley. \u003cspan data-state=\"closed\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"779\" data-start=\"491\"\u003eThe palate is crisp, linear and full of energy, with citrus peel, green apple, white stone fruit and mineral bite running into a beautifully clean finish.

Joseph Bou Sleiman combines local tradition with modern winemaking from the family’s estate in the Bekaa Valley, where vineyards sit over 1,000 metres above sea level between Mount Lebanon and the Anti-Lebanon Mountains. Cuvée Membliarus takes its name from a Phoenician governor of Santorini, a nod to the Greek origins of Assyrtiko and its ancient Mediterranean journey.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wine Republic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55489134526849,"sku":null,"price":12.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/0513\/9841\/files\/2024CuveeMembliarusAssyrtico_ChateauOumsiyat.png?v=1779018804","url":"https:\/\/www.wine-republic.co.uk\/products\/2024-cuvee-membliarus-assyrtico-chateau-oumsiyat","provider":"Wine Republic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
