Corbières AOC

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Corbières is the largest Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée in the Languedoc-Roussillon, encompassing an enormous variety of soil types and microclimates. The wines from the region tend to be just as varied as the terroir. The region also experiences widely varied winds. The dry, Atlantic vent Cers frequently brings cold weather from the northwest while the area is normally under the influence of the warm, Mediterranean vent Marin.
