Our roots are deeply rooted.
We have been here since the beginning of the Bekaa Valley wine industry and are proud to own and manage some of the oldest wineries in the valley.
Maison Kortbawi is located in Jdita, Lebanon, in the middle of the Bekaa Valley.
With a 1,000 square meter cellar for fermentation and bottling, Maison Kortbawi is well positioned within the vibrant Bekaa Valley wine industry; with an annual production of 60,000 bottles, and with its small volumes and small vats, each tank is lifted separately to produce 2 brands of wines: Domaine Kortbawi and Vin caprice vignoble du Liban.
