Description to Saussignac AOC
The small appellation lies as an enclave in the large Bergerac area in the wine-growing region of south-west France. Already in the Middle Ages, the Franciscan monk and poet François Rabelais (1494-1553) had the main character Pantagruel praise this wine in his famous work "Gargantua and Pantugruel". The vineyards cover around 100 hectares of vines in the municipalities of Gageac-et-Rouillac, Monestier, Razac de Saussignac and Saussignac. The "lieblich" to sweet white wines are blended from the Sémillon, Sauvignon Bl anc and Muscadelle varieties. Well-known producers are Château Court-les-Muts, Château de Miaudoux and Domaine de Richard.
