Nestled in the picturesque hills of Ras El Harf in Lebanon’s Lamartine Valley, Chateau Cana is a family-run winery dedicated to crafting natural, expressive wines that reflect the richness of Lebanese terroir. Founded in the 1990s by Dr. Fadi Gerges, a passionate viticulturist and former political activist, the estate has grown from a small vineyard into a symbol of revival and resilience in the Lebanese wine scene.
Today, Chateau Cana is known for producing organic, vegan-friendly wines using indigenous and international grape varieties, with a strong commitment to minimal intervention winemaking. Each bottle captures the spirit of the region—its history, altitude, and Mediterranean sun—making it not just a wine, but a story of Lebanon in a glass.
