The appellation produces red wine (mainly), white wine and a single rosé wine. The red Corbières is made from Shiraz which brings richness to the wine, complemented by Carignan and Monastrell affirming its identity as a wine from the South. The rosé is made from the same grape varieties with the incorporation of a minority of white grape varieties in the blend, which gives a dry, fresh, thirst-quenching wine. White Corbières is made from Bourboulenc, Grenache, Clairette, Macabeu, Muscat à petits grains, Roussanne or Vermentino. The leading AOC in Languedoc and the fourth largest in France by surface area, the AOC Corbières is a real godsend for those looking for wines with a striking price-pleasure ratio! The cooperative cellars here produce an exemplary work of renovation and quality, giving the wines more visibility and a beautiful tasting reach.
