Winery Overview
For four generations, the “black wine” has been flowing through the Vigouroux family’s veins. If the passing down of winemaking know-how is important in viticulture, the passion for Malbec is even more remarkable in heredity, guiding the family since 1887 on the historic Cahors vineyards and beyond, in search of a terroir/grape variety symbiosis. Owners of 4 prestigious wineries in Occitanie, the Vigouroux family are the specialists in France when it comes to producing Malbec wines. With focus on the "black wine" since 1887, their Chateaux offer various styles of wines, from the plateau to the different terraces… A know-how practiced for several generations and an expertise in the Malbec grape variety, historic chateaux, a growing brands, a qualitative distribution, completed by an exceptional agritourism offer, Bertrand-Gabriel Vigouroux is open to the world, striving to preserve his roots and regional values. Cot, Malbec or Auxerrois are the three designations to describe a unique grape. With its round blistered leaf, its airy cluster and black skin, Malbec has a quality potential in France and abroad that Bertrand-Gabriel Vigouroux has always believed in. From Cahors to the Mendoza vineyard in Argentina through the Buzet vineyard, the grape is as polymorphic as polychrome, embracing a multitude of colors, providing an infinite palette of flavors. A chameleon difficult to work that the Vigouroux family was able to master on its native soil, its adoptive soil, and its unsuspected terroirs of predilection.
