Languedoc Wine Tour & Olive Oil trip from Montpellier

The Languedoc wine region

 Enjoy a fun & informative Languedoc Wine Tour in France's largest wine region. For many years, the Languedoc wines were mostly synonymous to quantity rather than quality. With time, customers frowned upon low quality wines and this huge French wine region had to rethink its business model.

 For 30 years now, the great majority of wine growers have made a considerable effort to restructure the vineyards in order to increase the quality and authenticity of the local wines and take into consideration the will of more demanding customers.

 The Languedoc AOC regional appellation was created in 2007 and it helped redefine the quality of all the appellations within a regional framework. Among these AOC's the Crus du Languedoc include the greatest appellations of which the Terrasses du Larzac and Pic Saint Loup wine producing regions.
