Landscape

Pujols-sur-Dordogne is situated on a rocky promontory above the Escouach valley and the Dordogne floodplain. Its location therefore connects the village itself with the landscapes of the valley, plain and riverbank.

Wine

The Pujols wine-growing region produces AOC Bordeaux Supérieurs wines – sweet white wines, red wines and rosé wines – as well as dry white wines from the AOC Entre-Deux-Mers appellation. Winemakers in Pujols welcome visitors to their estates to introduce them to their wines.

On the Circuit des lavoirs de Pujols, hikers can meet winemakers who talk about their work and offer their wines for tasting. The Circuit des lavoirs de Pujols passes a 19th-century washhouse whose floor is laid with Gironde tiles.
