The 7 hectares (17.5 acres) vineyard is located around an old medieval castle by the village of Albas. It overlooks the Lot River at an altitude of 240 meters (780 ft). Château de Cénac Prestige derives from a vineyard established on plateaus with a chalky-clayey soil consisting of brown clay and ferruginous pebbles.
Hand-picked grapes. The harvest is completely de-stemmed.Traditional-method. The maceration - at controlled temperature - lasts about 3 weeks with permanent pumping-over of the must for an optimal extraction of aromas and color. The final blend is done after completion of the malo-lactic fermentation. The wine is then aged in French oak casks (new and old) for 12/14 months before it is bottled.
