Starting
with 3 hectares of vineyards, CVGSO
has grown to become the
biggest winemaking company in the Grand South-West
...Now in the Top
20 French wineries!
|
In
just over 10 years, La Compagnie des Vins du Grand
Sud-Ouest managed to impose itself as a leader in
the wine market.
CVGSO
makes a turnover of 33 million Euros and now produces
over 24 million bottles annually, mainly for the French
market.
After
this commercial success in certainly one of the hardest
markets in the world, CVGSO is now looking to expand
its distribution around the world for the following
products (Croix du Mayne, Candastre, Marguerite and
Haut Perthus), all rated in the Wine Spectator. |
|
 |
With
an impressive number of AOC appellations such as
Bergerac, Cahors, Gaillac, Madiran, Côtes de Duras
or Côtes du Tarn
to name just a few - not to mention the Vin de Pays
Comté Tolosan
with unmatched quality/price ratio - the possibilities
are abundant and
the future inviting for those who are passionate and
avid to face challenges. Varietals includes: Vin de
Pays, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Syrah and
Chardonnay. Also produces Vin de Table. |
 |
It was back in 1990 that Francois Pélissié
first decided to create CVGSO, in order to make a living
out of winemaking and develop his activities beyond
the ownership of a few hectares of vineyard that he
inherited at Anglars Juillac, near Cahors. |
|
It
is here that the Pélissié family cultivated
the art of winemaking since the 16th century that
now produces the Cahors Croix du Mayne; Francois Pélissié
understood that the wine market was rapidly changing
and that the less known, but promising appellations
would make it possible for him to exercise his talent. |
 |
| CVGSO
is currently seeking distributors worldwide. |
