More about this product
Languedoc-Roussillon
Languedoc has been an important center for winemaking for several centuries, with the port of Sète and the connection to the Atlantic Ocean through the 17th-century Canal du Midi providing key trade routes. Looking back, there is evidence of Roman winemaking in the area. The ruins of a first-century winery are located near Clermont, west of Montpellier. The Mediterranean climate and abundant land with soils ranging from rocky sand to dense clay have long been considered very suitable for wine production. However, the heritage of Languedoc-Roussillon is often overlooked in modern times, as the region gained a reputation for producing quantity over quality. Today, the face of Languedoc-Roussillon wine has drastically changed. More viable grape varieties have been planted, and names like St Chinian, Faggères, Corbières, Pic St Loup, and Terrasses du Larzac are becoming increasingly known among sommeliers and wine lovers - and the wines are often offered as great value for money on the wine lists of the best restaurants.

Malbec
A lesser known fact of Malbec is that it is a native to southwestern France, but now better known as the iconic wine grape of Argentina, its second homeland. Broadly speaking, French Malbec tends to be more meaty, rustic and tannic, while examples from Argentina seem to be uniformly rich, ripe, jammy and juicy. On both sides of the Atlantic, Malbec wines are generally aged in oak to enhance the wine's structure and aging potential.
