Wine

                  

The ancient Roman mosaics of Volubilis remind us that Morocco has been a land of wine for centuries. All began in the region of Meknes. Though the vine’s importance fluctuated with history, it never completely disappeared. Today, the tradition is reborn. Since the 1990s, Morocco has witnessed a notable increase in varieties, significant investment and the arrival of talented winemakers.

Meknes, the heart of winemaking in Morocco, benefiting from moderate rain and rich sun, these vineyards enjoy exceptional conditions, including sandy soil with clay and limestone. Sixty percent of Morocco’s wine production comes from this region, essentially from the estates of Castel, Zouina and Celliers de Meknès.

We take pride in supporting this tradition by offering a wine selection exclusively of Moroccan wine, primarily from the region of Meknes.
