● Languedoc wines are “Wines for Everyone.” They offer a wide range of styles, and high quality wines cultivated in the sunny, warm and welcoming Mediterranean region.

● As France’s largest wine region, Languedoc has many stories to tell that encompass a range of appellations, winemakers, terroirs, grape varieties and wine styles. Languedoc has a “cool” factor, a warm and open disposition with many surprises to discover.

● Palette for Every Palate: Languedoc wines are focused on promoting the full range of styles for all types of wine drinkers from red, white, and rosé to sweet and sparkling.

● AOP Languedoc wines, the regional or “flagship” appellation of the region, can only be produced as red, white, or rosé still wines. This regional appellation in the south of France is constantly surprising the palate with unique blends of 19 approved grape varieties between red and white grapes.
