Wine from Languedoc

Languedoc is a wine region in France that has some of the oldest vineyards in the world. With over 700,000 acres, Languedoc is one of the largest producing regions on the planet. The Mediterranean climate makes it easy to grow grapes as does the soil which can vary from gravel and chalk-based to alluvial and limestone. In 2001, Languedoc produced more reds and whites than all of the regions in the Unites States put together. Languedoc produces the majority of grapes from what is called the, “Wine Lake.” The wines that are produced on the coast wear the label, Languedoc. The vineyards that are located on the top of the older riverbed stones are rated higher than other wines grown in the Languedoc region. The majority of Languedoc wines are made by more than 500 wine cooperatives with the best known appellations in the Saint Chinaian AOC, The Gaugeres, the Cobieres AOC and the Saint-Chinaian AOC. Because Languedoc is going through changes, there are new appellations that have been created with some of the older ones being changed. Although mainly known for wine, Languedoc also harbors a huge textile industry that is known all over the world.
