The area is located in the south of the Bordeaux region immediately east of Graves. Until the 2008 vintage, it was declared as an appellation for red wines. In 2009, the umbrella appellation Côtes de Bordeaux was created. The red wines are now produced under the appellation Cadillac - Côtes de Bordeaux. Under "Premières Côtes de Bordeaux", only sweet wines are now produced from Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle.
