ADDITIONAL INFO

Languedoc-Roussillon wine, including the vin de pays labeled Vin de Pays d'Oc, is produced in southern France. While "Languedoc" can refer to a specific historic region of France and Northern Catalonia, usage since the 20th century (especially in the context of wine) has primarily referred to the northern part of the Languedoc-Roussillon région of France, an area which spans the Mediterranean coastline from the French border with Spain to the region of Provence. The area has around 700,000 acres (2,800 km2) under vines and is the single biggest wine-producing region in the world, being responsible for more than a third of France's total wine production. In 2001, the region produced more wine than the United States.

Le vignoble du Languedoc

Le vignoble du Languedoc-Roussillon se trouve au sud de la France. Il couvre une partie de la région Occitanie, soit les départements de l'Aude, du Gard, de l'Hérault et des Pyrénées-Orientales. Sur ces quatre départements, le vignoble compte 228 000 ha de vignes de cuve3, dont 89 000 ha exploités en AOC4. On y produit des vins très variés : des rouges, rosés et blancs tranquilles, des vins effervescents, mais aussi des vins doux naturels.

Le vignoble est très ancien et date d'avant la fondation de la Gaule narbonnaise, ce qui lui permet de revendiquer le plus ancien vin effervescent au monde : la blanquette de Limoux.
