LEBANON

Lebanon is one of the oldest sites of wine production, falling as it does within in a rough triangle, taking in the Caucuses to the north, Mesopotamia (modern Iraq) to the east and Southern Palestine to the west, a zone generally acknowledged to be the area in which the earliest wines were made... The UVL was founded in 1997, one year after Lebanon joined the Organisation International de la Vigne et du Vin (OIV).
