D iscover a fable born out of our desire to work with each other and the power of Nature to create experiences to savour, like this harmonious expression of the varietal with zip and texture of clay soil on the palate and aromatic lime, white floral and stone fruit, mineral character on the nose. Long ago, when the world was young, Mwazé a gentle turtle and Nguma a mighty shark struck up an unlikely friendship in the clear waters of the Comoros Islands. Though different in many ways, they had shared the sea for years, and over time, formed a strong bond. While Nguma was powerful and fast, Mwazé was wise and patient. Together, they explored the deep oceans, always looking out for one another. One day, as the two friends were swimming near a beautiful coral reef, they came across a fishing net tangled in the rocks. The net had trapped many small fish, and seeing the trapped creatures struggling, Mwazé felt a pang of sadness. “These poor fish!” Mwazé said, “We must help them escape before the fishermen return.” Nguma, always eager to show his strength, offered to break the net. “I will tear through it with my teeth,” he declared confidently.

But as Nguma bit down on the tough ropes of the net, his teeth couldn’t cut through. He thrashed and pulled, but the net held

firm. Mwazé watched thoughtfully. “Perhaps strength alone won’t solve this,” she said, swimming closer to examine the net. She noticed the net was loose in some spots, especially near the bottom. “I have an idea,” Mwazé continued. “Instead of breaking it, we can work together to lift the net gently from the bottom, and the fish will be able to swim out.” Nguma, who usually relied on his power, trusted his friend’s wisdom. Together, they carefully nudged the bottom of the net upward, creating an opening. Slowly but surely, the fish swam out, free from their trap. The two friends smiled as they watched the fish dart away. “You were right, Mwazé,” Nguma said with a grin. “Sometimes it takes more than strength—it takes thoughtfulness and teamwork.”

From that day on, Mwazé and Nguma continued to explore the seas, but now they used both their strengths-Nguma’s power and Mwazé’s wisdom—to solve challenges together. Their friendship grew even stronger, and they became known across the islands as a perfect pair, proving that even the most unlikely creatures can form lasting bonds when they work together.
