Vineyards

The vineyards cover a total of over 100,000 hectares. In the past, only the simplest mass-produced wines were produced here, but the quality was significantly improved by the clearing of 30,000 hectares of vineyards ordered by the government in the 1980s. The wines of the famous Mas de Daumas-Gassac vineyard in particular have contributed to the excellent reputation of IGP wines (formerly Vin de pays).
