Who would have imagined the extent to which the Bekaa Valley's wine industry would be reshaped after Massaya's launch in 1998? As Michael Karam, author of the award winning Wines from Lebanon explains:" Massaya started a revolution that would redefine the Lebanese wine and arak industry."
In May 2008, Massaya will celebrate its 10th anniversary with the theme Back to Bacchus! a tribute to Lebanon's significant wine heritage, best symbolized by the awe-inspiring Temple of Bacchus, the Roman God of Wine, at Baalbeck.
There is no excuse not to party as we honor our mythical neighbor with 10 days of festivities across the Bekaa Valley.
Join us and book for one of our May events: Arak workshop, Souk el Tayeb, Oud recital, Picnics, Hikes, 2008 Country style Menu, Resthouse garden Menu...
Bookings are a must. Please email us by clicking on Back to Bacchus or call 08-510 135 or 03-735 795
