France - the Corbières & South-West Coast

CorbieresThe alluring landscape of the rugged Corbières hills is dominated by extraordinary fortresses perched on rocky outcrops. Below, in the sunny valleys, vineyards produce delicious, robust red wines.
A little further east, with the final peaks of the Pyrenees providing a dramatic backdrop, the coast either side of the Franco-Spanish border also invites exploration. Orange trees, mimosas and vines coat the slopes above a coastline of rocky coves, craggy headlands and rugged cliffs.
