Between sea and mountain, the Plain of Roussillon is an ideal playground for wine tourism lovers. This sun-drenched territory brings together a diversity of terroirs, Catalan villages and estates committed to environmentally friendly viticulture.
Sun, sea and vines
From the alluvial plain to the coastal lagoons, via the streets of Perpignan, the plain wine route offers remarkable diversity.
At the heart of Roussillon, the alluvial plain of the Têt river hosts generous vineyards swept by the Tramontane wind. Varied soils give birth to structured Côtes du Roussillon and the celebrated Muscat de Rivesaltes.
Between lagoons, salt marshes and the Mediterranean, the Roussillon coastline produces characterful wines in a wild, preserved setting. From Saint-Cyprien to Leucate, vines and sea are neighbours.
Perpignan, capital of Roussillon, is the ideal starting point for exploring the wines of the plain. Passionate wine merchants, local wine bars and Catalan markets make up a vibrant wine scene.
The Plain of Roussillon wine route passes through Catalan villages between sea and mountain, where every stop is an invitation to taste.
