Fresh, Seasonal and Local Flavours

The regions of Languedoc and Roussillon are coastal Mediterranean swaths in the South of France, stretching from Provence to the Pyrenees at the Spanish border. On a map, the area doesn’t appear formidable, yet one in every three appellation-designated French wines are produced here.
Languedoc and Roussillon have warm, dry Mediterranean climates defined by hot summers, and mild temperatures throughout the rest of the year. Heat and sun might otherwise overripen grapes, but top vineyard sites stay cool thanks to their elevation and coastal breezes from the Atlantic and/or Mediterranean.
Languedoc and Roussillon embrace native varieties like Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Carignan and Cinsault. Flavors capture the rampant garrigue that grows throughout both regions. Styles range from bold, concentrated and chewy to light and pretty, depending on the producer and mix of grapes used.
Languedoc accounts for 34% of France’s rosé wines, and approximately 11% of rosé production worldwide.
Miren de Lorgeril, president of the CIVL and winemaker at Maison Lorgeril, says the wines of Languedoc have “evolved in a very positive way…this evolution is reflected not only in the success of the Languedoc appellation, particularly its rosé, but also in the diversity of appellations.”
