Are you familiar with Maury? Do you know about the dramatic garrigue landscape, Catalan influence and varieties of wines, many of which spend time baking in the sun? Or its newest appellation called Maury Sec?

Located in tiny Roussillon (Languedoc-Roussillon), Maury is even smaller. Because many people know other wine regions or cities in France, this map helps to pinpoint the location in the larger scheme of things.

Roussillon is at the bottom of the map touching the Spanish border (the sage green color). Maury is in the upper section of Roussillon. Map source: Vineyards.com
