A major part of the appellation has relatively fine sandy granite slopes while the rest is covered with foothills that are more clayey.
With some of the most moderate altitudes and slopes of the 10 crus, this AOC also mainly benefits from a southeast exposure. The presence of the windmill bears witness to regular, powerful winds conducive to an optimal state of health for the vines.

The soils composed of silica produce elegant, complex and powerful wines.
