Automatic Transmission Cars in France

Am planning to rent a car for a week at Toulouse and returning to Bordeaux. I am amazed that there is only one car (of many available) that has an automatic transmission. As I plan to do considerable driving on winding roads, a manual transmission would be unacceptable. I am concerned that with only one type of car with automatic that there is a good possibility that when I show up at TLS they are going to say that only manual transmission cars are available. Has anyone had problems in this regard when renting in France?
