The cultivars kingdom This is a Tunisian-German partnership operating on a virtually abandoned government owned estate covering a total of 260 ha, where 229 ha of vines were planted around a decade ago. Today, this is home to some of the world's finest grape varieties: Pinot (72.5 ha), Merlot (54.5 ha), Syrah (53.5 ha), Cabernet sauvignon (36.9 ha) and Chardonnay (11.7 ha). All of the vines are trellised and supplied by controlled irrigation. The capital is 66% owned by Les Vignerons de Carthage and 34% by the German group Langguth. |
