With its 11 Ha, Château La Tour du Pin Figeac is located on the Haute Terrasse of Figeac-Pomerol. And it is the clays contained in this soil of the Haute Terrasse of Figeac-Pomerol that make its terroir so great.

In the subsoil, these gravels are mixed with a dust of clay and ancient sands that play a primordial role in the agrological balance of a wine-growing terroir. Beyond these ancient gravels, there appears a sedimentary subsoil of extremely penetrable molasse." Chateau La Tour du Pin Figeac is hard to find nowadays.
