Umami Wines
Founded in 2016 by award-winning winemaker Hiba Salloum, this Bekaa Valley boutique estate produces small batches from high-altitude vines — including the indigenous Obeidy. Through minimal intervention and artisanal precision, the wines reveal extraordinary depth, balance and complexity, translating Lebanon's mineral-rich soils and dramatic temperature swings into bottles of true character.
