Château Sigalas Rabaud

Sauternes & Barsac

FAMILLE DE LAMBERT DES GRANGES

For six generations, the Sigalas family have put their heart and soul into making wine from this outstanding terroir, the smallest of the first growths, consisting of 14 hectares of vines in a single block.

A STORY

In a few words

The estate is located between Chateau d’Yquem and the Ciron River, on a south-facing clay-gravel rise. This is where the Marquis de Lambert des Granges and his daughter, Laure, produce fine, fresh, and elegant Sauternes. These wines are refined and delicious when young, with a bouquet of lime blossom and white fruit, although they can often age for over a century.

 

The second wine, Lieutenant de Sigalas, is the first growth’s “little brother“ and is the result of a meticulous selection, combining the prestige of a fine wine with remarkable freshness.

 

This great terroir also produces two excellent dry white wines, Sémillante de Sigalas, made from old Sémillon vines, and Demoiselle de Sigalas, a blend of Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc.

 

At the forefront of innovation, the Sigalas team produce a wine from 100% botrytised grapes with no added sulphur, labelled “le 5 de Sigalas“.
