Producer Information

In 2001 Gérard Gribelin and Philippe Gervoson fell in love with Domaine de la Zouina. Struck by the richness of the terroir, the particularity of the soil and the climate, they were certain that they could produce unique results. So, they decided to translate their passion and wine-making savoir-faire from Pessac-Leognan to Morocco.

Philippe Gervoson also owns Château Larrivet Haut-Brion in Pessac-Léognan. The wine it produces is often cited by Robert Parker as one of the best in the world. Located at the foot of the Middle Atlas, about twenty km south of Meknes and Volubilis, the Domaine de la Zouina is part of the largest wine region of Morocco.
