In the east are the wines of Corbieres and la Clape, in the center are Minervois and Côtes de Malpeyre, and in the south, blanquette de Limoux. The whole is surrounded by elaborate decorative engravings designed to illustrate both the natural beauty and trade richness of the land.

Combette, Paris, 1854.
