Languedoc-Roussillon Wines


Consulting Chef Doug Psaltis/ NYC

Consulting Chef Cedric Tovar/ NYC

Once best known for producing the table wines that kept French soldiers sated during both world wars, the Languedoc-Roussillon region now yields some of the most exciting wines made today. This dinner will feature an outstanding lineup of outstanding bottles from Sud de France, along with an equally intriguing menu prepared by Country alum Doug Psaltis and Languedoc-Roussillon native Cedric Tovar.
