The wine region of Rivesaltes

Rivesaltes is an appellation for the historic Sweet wines of eastern Roussillon, in the Deep South of France. The natural sweet wines produced in this region have been revered since at least the 14th century. The technique used to make them is one of many techniques used for sweet wines. Unlike botrytized wines or ice wines, natural sweet wines are made by Mutage, a process that involves stopping the Fermentation of the must while a high level of natural sweetness remains.

The appellation covers most of the Languedoc region and almost a third of all the vineyards in France.
