In the cellars of the Cahors vineyards you can taste the precious Cahors Malbec ; on a farm you can savour a good foie gras or a cheese " Rocamadour "; in a gourmet restaurant or a country inn you enjoy local products sublimated by chefs. The Lot is all this at once and you will appreciate the excellence of this culinary heritage celebrated in incredible landscapes.
The Lot's character is formed by its 'causses' (limestone plateaux) through which the Lot, Dordogne and Célé valleys have carved their way. It is studded with major tourist attractions and beautiful villages such as Rocamadour, Cahors, Figeac and Saint Cirq Lapopie…. Man and Nature have both left their imprint on the Pech Merle cave and Padirac Chasm. When you're rambling or cycling, the unspoiled, authentic nature of the Lot is plain to see. Home to excellent local produce and fine food and wines, the Lot has many treats to offer your taste buds, including truffles, foie gras, lamb and melons from Quercy, and Cahors Malbec Wine.
