This special creation from Les Celliers de Meknès in Morocco reflects the rich history and renaissance of the Moroccan wine industry. Brahim Zniber founded this winery in the 1920s, at a time when Morocco was fighting for independence while simultaneously nurturing its own winemaking traditions. Zniber acquired abandoned vineyards from the French and breathed new life into Morocco's forgotten wine industry. Dune Blanc is the result of this revitalization, a tribute to the determination and passion of Moroccan winemakers.
The perfect location for Dune Blanc
Dune Blanc cleverly capitalizes on Morocco's unique location, where the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean meet. This unique location, combined with the diverse soil and temperate climate, is perfect for growing grapes. French winemakers, who came to Morocco in the late 19th century after an insect called phylloxera devastated European vineyards, discovered this. They brought their knowledge and applied it to Morocco. Dune Blanc, made from Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscat, is a direct result of this long tradition and expertise.
Upon opening a bottle of Dune Blanc, you're immediately greeted by a warm golden glow and a blend of fruity and citrus flavors. This lightly fruity white wine captivates all your senses with its subtle complexity and elegant aromas. The palate is harmonious, with fresh citrus, juicy peaches, and a hint of muscat, making every sip vibrant and refreshing.
Modern Moroccan wines
Dune Blanc is a symbol of the revival of Moroccan wine tradition, a tribute to a long history dating back to ancient times. This wine reflects the best of the modern Moroccan wine industry, with an excellent balance between price and quality that will appeal to both connoisseurs and casual wine lovers.
