It was founded in 1847 by Yussef (Joseph) Chbat and Monseigneur Gebrael Chbat on land that had belonged to the Monast\u00e8re Ecole de la Charit\u00e9, and the family describes it as Lebanon&#x27;s first commercial winery. Five generations of the same family have owned it since. Sami Chbat kept the winery going through the civil war, and after his death production paused while the family held on to the estate. Today the estate is led by Maurice Chbat as CEO and Edwin Chbat as CFO. Vines grow at 730 meters in Aramoun, with further parcels above 1,000 meters in the Bekaa.
