Wine Casks


Two kilometers of underground caverns in Ksara, used by the Romans and rediscovered by the Jesuit Monks in 1857, provide ideal conditions for the aging of wines. Temperatures do not rise above 13 degrees celcius, if I remember correctly, and humidity around 80 percent. We only saw a small portion of these amazing underground caves. Remarkable.
