Quick Facts Pyrenees Orientales
  • The Pyrenees-Orientales (Eastern Pyrenees) is the Almond capital of France; if you eat a dried almond somewhere in France, the chances are it came from here!
  • And, although most cork (in wine bottles) does NOT come from France, if you come across a cork that was made in France, it too was probably made here. Becuase in France, this is where most cork is grown.
