Beqaa Wineries

Picture

Starting in 1992 with the production of arak, the charming winery of Chateau now also produces red wines, white wines and rosé. Every day from 8 to 3:30, one can enjoy a one-hour tour covering the entire wine making process, including a wine tasting of five Massaya wines. Large groups are advised to book in advance. Outside of summer, on Saturdays and Sundays, they serve a Lebanese brunch buffet, starting at 11:30 am (40 USD including open wine) and for which a reservation is required.

They also have a location in Faqra, with great mountain views, yet all tours here need to be booked in advance. They offer a la carte dining on Saturday, while a Sunday brunch can be enjoyed following the same formula as Tanaayel.
 
To reach the winery from Chtaura, take the right fork (straight) toward Rachaya and Frontiers Syrian and turn left after about 2.5 kilometers (signposted Massaya.com). Then, turn right after about 300 meters, and right again after another 200 meters.
