Occitanie - Ssh! It's France's Best Kept Secret...
Occitanie is a diverse and captivating region in the south of France, renowned for its rich history, picturesque landscapes, and treasure trove of wines that make it France's best-kept secret. The region, formed by the merger of Languedoc-Roussillon and Midi-Pyrénées, boasts a unique blend of the Mediterranean coastline, majestic mountains, and dramatic countryside.
Historically, Occitanie has been shaped by its position as a crossroads of cultures, from Roman influences to the tradition of the medieval troubadour. The region's identity is deeply rooted in its distinctive Occitan language and cultural heritage.
One of Occitanie's highlights is its varied geography, offering the snow-capped peaks of the Pyrenees, the coves & beaches along the Mediterranean, and the serene beauty of its lakes, rivers, and gorges. The landscapes are complemented by a mild climate that makes the region an attractive destination throughout the year.
The vineyards of Occitanie are abundant, producing some of France's most affordable wines. Limoux and the Haute Vallée are for us the original Napa Valley, and the region as a whole we compare to France's California.
In essence, Occitanie is a sleeping giant that offers a perfect blend of history, diverse landscapes, culinary delights, and a relaxed lifestyle.
At Bar Blanquette we aim to bring all this together told as a story through the regions wines. As we grow we aim to become the leading marketer and exporter of fortified, sparkling, and natural wines from this beautiful region of Occitanie.
We are committed to upholding the rich traditions of winemaking while embracing innovation and sustainability. We strive to build lasting relationships with our partners and customers, delivering outstanding wines and unparalleled service every step of the way.
