Domaine des Tourelles Rose is a confident, characterful partner to flavourful Mediterranean cuisine. Founded in 1868 by French adventurer François-Eugène Brun, Domaine de Tourelles was the first commercial cellar in Lebanon producing wines, arak and other spirits.

This partners perfectly the distinctive flavours of traditional Lebanese food, especially spicy antipasti, trout steamed with chilli, Tabbouleh, Baba Ghanoush with olive oil, lemon & garlic, grilled lamb.
