  The Cadillac appellation was created in 1972. Specifications call for entirely hand picked grapes and sales restricted to wine in bottles. About 80% of the grapes are *botrytised, and the wine is fermented either in vat or in barrel. Château Manos is aged in barrels in Lamothe's underground cellars.
  
  *Botrytis cinerea is a fungus that concentrates sugar in the grapes. This "noble rot" accounts for all great natural sweet white wines.
