Circuit Autour de Perricard

Once upon a time, at the beginning of the 20th century, on the borders of the Lot-et-Garonne, a small causse terroir produced a wine of very high quality, "Le Vin de Thézac-Perricard". The bouquet of this wine, both fine and full-bodied, seduced the most illustrious connoisseurs such as Napoleon III and President Fallières. The latter, a fervent defender of regional gastronomy, did not hesitate to offer it to his guests, including Tsar Nicolas II of Russia. Delighted, he immediately placed an important order. At the time, this order resounded in all the houses of the country to the point that the wine of Thézac-Perricard became over the years, the wine that the Tsar had chosen, the wine that the Tsar wanted... hence the name of... HENCE THE NAME "TSAR'S WINE".
