Through the promotion of the seven Roussillon labels [appellations], an in-depth wine tour takes you in turn to the Cathare region (AOC Maury), onto the abrupt terraces of the Pyrenees (AOC Banyuls), in between plains and mountain (AOC Collioure), along the valley of Agly (AOC Côtes du Roussillon Villages), in between the Corbières Massif and the Pyrenees (AOC Côtes du Roussillon), or into the Catalogne region (AOC Rivesaltes and Muscat de Rivesaltes). The CIVR site also proposes a complete list of producers, as well as conferences and tasting sessions, all with a Roussillon wine and local produce theme.
