Wine Lovers across the U.S. will want to tune in online May 3rd, 2012 as we introduce (or re-introduce) AOC wines from the Languedoc region in the south of France. The Languedoc (pronounced "long-dock") produces many of the grape varieties you already know, including Syrah, Grenache, Viognier and Mourvedre to name a few, as well as some you may not know like Piquepoul, Carignan and Mauzac.
The appellations we'll be tasting blend these grapes into some of the most exciting wines coming out of France today. And many of the wines are very affordable with an average retail price of about $15.
Here's 3 things you can do to be part of #LanguedocDay:
1. Drink some wine! (Many of you already have this down. We're asking for you to "discover" a Languedoc wine that day.)
2. Share your label photos, tastes, likes, food pairings or any other experiences on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, etc. making sure to include #LanguedocDay in your post.
3. See what your fellow wine lovers are saying by tracking the #LanguedocDay hash tag
