The wine region of Mornag
Tunisian AOC in the coastal plain ~40 km south of Tunis, dry climate tempered by the sea, Roman tradition inherited from Carthage. Signature Carignan as red king: warm and velvety with blackberry, black cherry, candied plum, garrigue, sweet spices and cocoa touch, round tannins and solar fruit. Peppery Syrah and firm Cabernet as complements, Cinsault and Grenache in reputed fruity Mediterranean roses. Ugni Blanc and Rezzegui in fresh whites.
The word of the wine: Pinot meunier
Cultivated in the 19th century in all the northern vineyards, this black grape variety has largely regressed since. Very present in the Marne valley, it constitutes a third of the vineyards in Champagne, alongside pinot noir and chardonnay with which it is often blended. It brings roundness and red and yellow fruit aromas to champagnes. Pinot meunier is also the dominant grape variety in red and rosé wines in the Orleans AOC and the rare Touraine-Noble-Joué, a grey wine. Syn.: meunier.
