Languedoc-Roussillon Wines
Languedoc-Roussillon, the biggest wine producing region in the world, is located in southern France along the Mediterranean coast from Provence to the Spanish border. Languedoc-Roussillon wines are mostly blends and although lumped together it really shows that in the Languedoc subregion wines are French in character with their fruit-forward and complex notes. By contrast, Roussillon reveals its Catalan culture by producing jammy, savoury red blends as well as some fortified wines.
Merlot Wines
Merlot is an iconic red grape variety from Bordeaux, France. It is predominantly present in red wines from the iconic wine regions of Saint-Émilion and Pomerol, both from Bordeaux. Besides being a great calming companion for Cabernet Sauvignon in the renowned Bordeaux blends, Merlot stands besides other French wine varieties such as Tannat (in Cotes de Gascogne), Malbec (in Cahors) and sometimes Petit Verdot. In Tuscany, Merlot sometimes stands beside Sangiovese.
