Varied soils (marl, clay, gravel), Mediterranean climate.
The wine region of Pays d'Oc
The single-grape IGP par excellence: modern, accessible, frank and fruity wines, the popular signature of the Midi. Spicy Syrah reds (pepper, blackberry), round Merlot, structured Cabernet, generous Grenache, supple Cinsault. Crisp, tangy rosés. Opulent Chardonnay whites, lively Sauvignon, floral, apricoty Viognier.
The word of the wine: Table wine
Everything that is not VQPRD (European designation for all appellation wines: quality wine produced in a specific region). In principle, the bottom of the ladder. But, as in Italy a decade ago (Vino da Tavola), this category is also a refuge for wines that are out of the ordinary, whose producers refuse to accept certain grape variety or vinification dictates.
