Languedoc wines

Our private wine sales site offers a wide selection of Languedoc wines at the best prices. 

Languedoc wines first came to prominence under the Greeks in the 6th century BC. The Romans later structured the region and brought their technical knowledge. Languedoc vineyards benefited from the construction of the Canal du Midi in the 17th century and the arrival of the railroads in the 19th century. In 1907, a major revolt broke out among Languedoc winegrowers, following an overproduction of wine. It wasn't until 1970 that the profession as a whole restructured itself to offer consistent quality Languedoc wines. 

The Languedoc region is diverse and home to many grape varieties. These include Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Cinsault, as well as lesser-known varieties such as Cot, Malbec, Chenin and Rolle. 

The Languedoc vineyards cover a large part of southwestern France, in the departments of Aude, Gard, Hérault and Pyrénées-Orientales. From Nîmes to just south of Narbonne, the vineyards extend as far as the foothills of the Massif Central. The variety of the territory is such that some parts of the vineyards benefit from the mildness of the Mediterranean coast, while others are subject to the rigors of the mountainous climate. The Languedoc wine region boasts many renowned appellations, including Pic Saint-Loup, Faugères, Saint-Chinian, Corbières, Minervois and Coteaux du Languedoc.
