Languedoc-Roussillon

In the South of France, adjacent to the Rhônetal, the country’s largest wine region – the Languedoc – embraces the coastline of the Mediterranean with its vineyards and picturesque old stone houses. The climate is characterised by an abundance of sunlight, mild winters and hot summers. The vines that flourish here, mainly on limestone soils, are strong and robust thanks to the dryness of the region. Alongside viticulture, olives are also cultivated agriculturally without any additional artificial irrigation. The Languedoc is a multifarious region, with the Mediterranean ambience omnipresent: the typical earthenware, the light textiles and the dainty, delicious cuisine.
