A ‘fromagerie’ sells fromage (cheese), a ‘poissonnerie’ fish, and a ‘vinaigrerie’ vinegar, what else? There used to be hundreds of ‘maîtres vinaigrier’ (vinegar makers) in France, but now there are only a handful left. One of them is La Vinaigrerie La Guinelle in the hamlet of Cosprons, part of Port Vendres in the Pyrénées-Orientales department. It is one of the last vinegar makers in France that makes its products in the open air. And, even more special, they use the famous Banyuls wine as a base for their tasty condiment.
