Vin Cuit Producers

This is a provisional working list of producers of vin cuit - the sweet cooked wine traditionally served at Christmas in Provence. I have tasted a few of them at various tastings. As can be seen from the details provided for some of the wines, there is a wide range of varieties and length of ageing time, and styles are very different. Main producers of vin cuit
