Gaillac, from the ancient Gallo-Roman name “Galhac,” means fertile. This earth is both fragile and powerful, it cultivates nuance. It is called the “little Tuscany” of the Tarn due to its beautiful sunsets over the rolling vineyards. The Tarn Valley does not only allow you to taste good wines but also the “dolce vita”. It is a region of France which has a lot to offer and offers a variety of landscapes and worlds. Many fortified towns are located here, including the famous Cordes-Sur-Ciel, of which Albert Camus wrote:

“The traveler who, from the terrace of Cordes, looks at the summer night knows that he does not need to go further and that, if he wants, the beauty here, day after day, will take him away from all solitude.
