REGION| ROUSILLON WINE


Roussillon wines are known for their quality grapevines thanks to the Mediterranean climate with which the region is imbued all year round.

This ideal climate offers the best possible conditions for the vines to develop. AOC Côtes du Roussillon extends over 118 communes, from the Albera mountains ) to the Corbières Massif (around 5800 hectares).
Each year, 170,000 hectolitres are produced. The wines of the region come from a blend of at least three grape varieties such as: Carignan, Grenache noir, Syrah, Cinsault and Mourvèdre. Most are red wines but there are also rosés, dry whites and natural sweet wines.

Use a stay on the Argelès seafront to visit vineyards and cellars in the region. There are a range of cooperative vineyards and cellars where you can discover the variety of Roussillon wine.
