The château Lacapelle Cabanac vineyard is situated on the chalky causse
(limestone plateau) at about 300 meters altitude, and benefits from a cooler
climate than that of the Lot valley.
The grapes are harvested at full maturity
giving the wines its delicate texture with an excellent aromatic potential.
The Autan wind, hot and dry, that blows there until the autumn, allows the
wine maker of the causse to wait for the complete maturity of the grape without
fearing the weather precipitations coming from the Atlantic.
