Château Héritage Sparkling Brut
About
Château Héritage Brut White is a groundbreaking Lebanese sparkling wine that blends international finesse with authentic local identity. Produced by the historic Touma family in Kab-Elias, this cuvée represents a unique fusion of classic varieties with Lebanon's indigenous Obeidy grape. Sourced from high-altitude Bekaa Valley vineyards, it delivers a crisp, sophisticated, and vibrant expression of Lebanese sparkling winemaking.
Tasting Notes
Pale straw yellow with brilliant clarity and subtle green reflections, featuring fine, steady bubbles that rise to form a delicate mousse. The nose is aromatic and expressive, opening with notes of white flowers, citrus blossom, green apple, and lemon zest, underlying subtle tropical tones and hints of wet-stone minerality. On the palate, the attack is crisp and vibrant with lively acidity and a smooth, creamy mousse. Flavors of pear, grapefruit, and green plum unfold alongside a delicate honeyed nuance and fresh salinity, finishing clean, mineral-driven, and thoroughly refreshing.

Serving Suggestions
Serve thoroughly chilled at 6–8°C in a champagne flute or white wine glass. It is highly recommended to open the bottle a bit before drinking; allowing the wine brief contact with the air helps it open up, unwind, and express its delicate floral aromatics and fruit profile much better.
Pairing
An exceptional aperitif and celebration wine. It pairs flawlessly with raw seafood, fresh oysters, caviar, ceviche, and sushi. It is equally elegant alongside traditional Lebanese mezze, light goat cheese appetizers, and delicate white fish or poultry dishes—making it an ideal choice for high-end dining and festive gatherings.
