Fake Languedoc
SOCIETE TRANSVINS sells fake Languedoc in China?
Chinese friends gave us a very nice (and expensive) box with a bottle of red wine from France, Languedoc.
We were immediately a bit suspicious about the name: “Dragon Boat Sait”. Or is it Sail…
There was also another obvious spelling mistake.
We tried the wine in Beijing, two wine specialist said it was a fake, poor quality Chinese wine. Not drinkable. We then had a real Languedoc, as a test of what a real Languedoc wine is.

Fake French company?
A google led to:
SAS, société par actions simplifiée
SOCIETE TRANSVINS
20 CHEMIN DES PRES, 30260 VIC-LE-FESQ

contact@transvins.fr
I checked the website and tried in many ways to fill out the contact form, address in Beijing, address in Brussels. I never succeeded, it was said there was something missing… Obviously they don’t want you contact them.
I sent the email below, sent from different email addresses. They were all returned as “rejected”.
I contacted their LinkedIn site. Zero answer.
So the company has zero customer service. What a shame.
Sadly many European companies have non-existing customer service.
That gives Chinese companies an open road to whatever copy they can make.
Sadly I had also bad experience with a Belgian company. I post later.

Bonjour,
Des amis chinois nous ont fait cadeau de ce vin dans une très belle boite (probablement chère). Le nom nous semblait suspect…
Nous avons goutté le vin avec deux spécialistes de vin, ici à Beijing.
Leur verdict: pas buvable, pas de Languedoc. Vin chinois de qualité très douteuse.
Voir les photos. Les étiquettes semblent “OK” mais il y a une belle faute d’orthographe,,,
Nous pensons donc une arnaque à la Chinoise.
La bouteille est chez nous, ma femme pense l’utiliser pour faire la cuisine.
Pour nous faire plaisir on a pu boire un vrai Languedoc…
Vos commentaires?
Bien à vous,
