Christmas: Languedoc wines are ready for the holidays

In a difficult context and the constraints imposed by Covid-19, the Maison des Vins reaffirms its support for regional producers of AOC Languedoc wines. The boutique remains open in the presence of sommeliers to defend the regional sector and also offers Click & Collect and free delivery for any order placed online (from € 50 of purchases, in Montpellier and surroundings).

While the health crisis is having a considerable impact on the economy and in particular on the regional wine industry, new consumer trends emerge. Far from overconsumption, we opt for “Consume local” by turning to small regional producers. For Christmas, it’s a good way to support the wine industry with gift ideas made in Occitanie.

Of “Local baskets” for a short circuit Christmas

To please to connoisseurs or to discover the richness of Languedoc wines, it is thus possible to offer bottles AOC Languedoc in a wide range in three colors: old vintages, exceptional vintages, natural or sparkling sweet wines … more than 500 references are to be discovered at the Languedoc Wines House.

And in order to support its support for local producers, the boutique of the House of Wines also created “Local baskets”, a 100% local gift idea in a short circuit, able to seduce the most discerning gourmets. Specially designed for the holidays, the baskets consist of an assortment including a bottle of wine, a terrine, a sweet treat seasonal… and a surprise for apprentice sommeliers.

Learn about oenology and harmonize “Wines & cheeses”

If not, we can also surf the trend “Experiential gift” (1) thanks to oenology boxes. In association with the Languedoc Wine School (2), La Maison des Vins offers gift vouchers for the end-of-year celebrations for training, courses and workshops for all levels and all tastes.

An example: For the most gourmet: a wine-gastronomic workshop “Wines & Cheeses”. Who, in fact, has never wondered which wine to pair with which cheese? Discover new sensations, understand how the flavors and aromatic characters of food and wine harmonize… These are the questions that this two-hour workshop answers…
