The Wine Region
Languedoc Roussillon
Languedoc Roussillon is France's largest producing wine region. A tad smaller than Bordeaux but it is more productive. In this region you will find a myriad of wine styles. Its proximity to the Mediterranean, also covering some regions nestled up against the Pyrenees, means that many grape varieties thrive here, from the well-known internationals to, what we think are more interesting, the local Southern French varieties, such as Syrah, Grenache, Cinsault etc.
The same applies for whites, being more successful when local varieties such as Vermentino, Grenache Blanc, Viognier are used.
