Languedoc in southeastern France produces 40% of France`s wine and it is the largest wine growing area in the world. Five départments make up the Languedoc-Roussillon region. Some have miles of sandy beaches and others have vineyards stretching as far as the eye can see. Almond and olive trees can be seen everywhere.
