Pays d’Oc wine was created in response to a French wine crisis in the mid-20th century – fast forward half a century and another crisis is facing the world of wine. So can the innovative, forward-thinking, ‘iconoclastic’ spirit that’s at the heart of the Pays d’Oc IGP category help not only French wine but also the wider wine world?!
That’s what we’re exploring in this second and concluding part of our Pays d’Oc mini-series, hearing from leading local producers like Maison Le Breton, Domaine Gayda, Ricardelle de Lautrec and Domaine de Sauzet.
We’re talking things like agroforestry, ancestral varieties, light-weighting, chillable reds, PIWIs, wine tourism, funky blends – and the importance of fun. We even meet a handsome rooster along the way…
Thanks to Pays d’Oc IGP for sponsoring this mini-series and thank you for tuning in!
