It extends across much of the south of the province of Córdoba. The rivers Genil and Guadajoz limit their eastern and western borders. The Guadalquivir River, in the North, and the Sierras Subbética, south, defines their contour. However, not all lands within these limits are considered suitable for producing wines under this Designation of Origin.
