Domaine de Montmarin
Domaine de Montmarin is owned by Philippe de Bertier and is located among the rolling hills that run down to the Mediterranean in the south of France. The domaine covers around 350 hectares of land with over 120 hectares of planted vines. Charismatic and charming, Phillipe makes exceptionally good and well-presented varietal Vin du Pays wines. The domaine has recently moved to screw-cap as they have invested in a new bottling facility. The range reflects their great quality and excellent value for money.

Appellation d'Origine Controlee (AOC) wines take up a significant amount of the limelight in France, but there are many thousands hectares of vineyards that fall outside of this classification. Of these, wines granted the status of Indication Geographique Protegee (IGP) are the most important and include the regions of Ardeche, Languedoc-Roussillon and Cotes de Provence, France's best-known region for rose wines. Producers must meet strict conditions to hit the required quality standards, particularly around yields and minimum alcohol content. There are many excellent wines offering great value for money made under the IGP label and relaxed labelling laws allow winemakers to indicate the wine's grape variety on the bottle. Alongside the classic Chardonnay, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, varieties like Viognier, Grenache and Syrah are prominent. Despite a perception of inferior quality to AOC wines, this is not the case, as winemakers looking to work innovatively outside of their own strict AOC rules will label their wines as IGP.

Languedoc-Roussillon
Languedoc-Roussillon
The vast wine region of Languedoc-Roussillon in south-east France is home to a diverse and constantly improving range of wines, with vineyards stretching north from the Spanish border past the cities of Marseille and Montpellier. Once home to cheaply produced, rustic table wines, the last 30 years have seen a drastic turnaround, as competition from keenly priced New World wines forced producers to move away from their traditional approach and focus on innovation and quality. The introduction of the Vin de Pays classification in 1979 allowed producers to label by variety, and consumers were able to see whether their wine was made from Chardonnay, Merlot, Grenache or Cabernet. Investment from the established wine cognoscenti of other regions has also helped and improved the viticultural development of Languedoc-Roussillon, and today excellent value can be derived from the region's wines, no matter which variety you like to drink.
