Chancellor
Ama TUTU MUNA, appointed Chancellor of the Jurade in Yaounde, is a deeply committed woman, both politically and culturally, and invested in all projects that promote Cameroonian and African art and gastronomy, as well as heritage knowledge. Ambassador for Cameroonian culture and gastronomy, she embodies the elegance of commitment, the strength of leadership and a passion for heritage. Leading politician in Cameroon, she is today a figure to be reckoned with. Renowned for her rigor, hard work, vision and ability to bring people together, she has won the respect of her peers while remaining close to the realities of the Cameroonian people. Convinced that the identity of a people rests on its cultural roots, she has multiplied initiatives to preserve, enhance and promote Cameroonian traditions.
"By accepting the role of ambassador of Saint-Emilion wines in Cameroon, I also intend to promote and sublimate the richness of our culinary art. The aim of this new Chancellery is to promote the values and traditions of our two cultures, to make the wine of Saint-Emilion resonate, and to showcase how these enchanting wines are perfect companions to our traditional dishes. The land of shrimps (Cameroon) doesn't come as a simple guest to the table of the greats, it comes with its own cellar, its own music, its own rituals and also its ancestral knowledge"
This new Chancellerie is the latest addition to Jurade de Saint-Emilion’s international network, which already includes representations in Belgium, England, Malta, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Norway and Côte d’Ivoire. Each Chancellery embodies the Jurade’s mission: to promote the excellence of Saint-Emilion wines around the world, to maintain historic links with major countries and to strengthen cultural cooperation around the culinary arts and sommellerie.
