2 Marc BrEdif Museum Offer With its majestic cellars in the heart of the Touraine, Marc Brédif has been one of the most famous Vouvray and Chinon houses since When Baron de Ladoucette took over the house in 1980, he breathed new life into the century old winery, while preserving its traditions. Today, Marc Brédif continues to produce Vouvray and Chinon wines of the finest quality. The history of the wines of Vouvray is directly linked to the religious history of Touraine. From the 4th century onwards, the monks owned most of the vineyards, including the best growths. The cellars of Marc Brédif are among the biggest and most beautiful of the appellation and the digging of the tuffe hillsides to make them began in the 8th century. VOUVRAY COLLECTION Vouvray Collection represents only the best vintages of sweet Vouvray made with noble rot harvest. They are exceptional wines with a level of sugar of more than 60g.

4 Chateau Musar Museum Offer In 1930, at just 20 years old, Gaston Hochar founded Chateau Musar, inspired by Lebanon s 6,000-year winemaking tradition and his travels in Bordeaux. His wines with noblesse greatly impressed senior officers in the army following on from the French mandate of the 1920s. Major Ronald Barton, of Château Langoa-Barton, stationed in Lebanon during World War II became a great friend, strengthening the links between Chateau Musar and Bordeaux that remain to this day. The Hochar family s philosophy of respect for the environment means that the 180 hectares of Musar vineyards are managed with minimal human interference and all the wines are made naturally. Chateau Musar was the first producer in Lebanon to achieve organic certification for its vineyards in Most are located in the Bekaa Valley, cradled between two mountain ranges running parallel to Lebanon s Mediterranean coastline. Vines have been cultivated here for at least 6,000 years: the Phoenicians (seafaring-ancestors of the modern Lebanese) were instrumental in bringing vines and wines from Byblos across to all of the areas around the Mediterranean. Flanked by snow-covered mountains, and nestled at 1000m (3,000 feet) above sea level, the serenely beautiful Bekaa Valley is blessed with 300 days of sunshine a year, fresh mountain breezes and an average temperature of 25 C (encompassing snowy winters and hot summers). Remote and unspoilt, the Musar vineyards were organic by default before the term was coined. All the grapes are hand-harvested by local Bedouins between August and October. In the winery, ambient yeasts do the work of fermentation. The bare minimum of sulphur is used and the Chateau Musar Red wines are neither fined nor filtered.
