Usually a blend of Cinsault, Syrah, or Grenache, this pink drink offers way more texture than your average poolside sipper. It captures the warmth of the Levant with a savory edge that screams for mezze platters.

The story
French
Influence
Bekaa
French influence runs deep here, thanks to the mandate period between the world wars. Winemakers in the Bekaa Valley adopted Provencal techniques but applied them to high-altitude vineyards. While Cinsault was traditionally used for reds, producers realized it made killer pink wine that could handle the intense heat, creating a refreshing tradition that stuck around despite conflict.

Why it's special
Spicy
Backbone
Gastronomic
It isn't just fruit juice as there is a serious spicy backbone here. High elevation farming in the Bekaa Valley keeps acidity razor-sharp despite the blazing sun. This balance creates a gastronomic rose that acts more like a light red wine, capable of standing up to garlic-heavy hummus or spicy lamb dishes without breaking a sweat.

Fans of Bandol or darker Spanish rosados will feel right at home with this style. If you think pink wine is only for sweet tooths, prepare to have your mind changed.
