Landiras, a wine-growing commune in the heart of the Graves

Landiras is a commune of about 2,500 inhabitants located south of Bordeaux, in the wine appellation of Graves. The vineyard, planted on gravel and sand soils, produces renowned red and white wines. The commune, extensive and wooded, is crossed by the Ciron, a tributary of the Garonne whose autumn mists contribute to the formation of the botrytis that gives rise to the great sweet wines of neighboring Sauternes and Barsac. The village of Landiras retains a village character with its shaded square and local shops.
