Château Khoury
Founded in 2002 by Raymond and Brigitte El Khoury on the eastern foothills of Mount Lebanon near Dhour Zahlé, with vineyards already planted in 1995 on land left fallow after the civil war. Their son Jean-Paul, trained in Reims, leads the winemaking today. Château Khoury was the first Lebanese estate to introduce Alsatian varieties such as Riesling, Gewürztraminer and Pinot Gris alongside classic Bordeaux varietals.
