Saint Genis des Tanyères
Protected by the foothills of Canigou, the easternmost Pyrenean peak, vines grow for Saint Genis des Tanyères. Due to alluvial deposits, the gravel is ample and permeates the earth layer’s surface area. For this reason, the roots must delve deep into the earth, giving rise to robust vines and healthy grapes as a result.
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.
