Château de Lignane

60 hectares of vines require work, but Gaelle and Siffrein do it in a remarkable way. It was necessary to dare to change completely the profession and take over the family domain to transform it. The wines they offer are wines to drink with friends, such as the "Les Dimanches" range. Do you want elegance? Let yourself be tempted by the Cuvée Jean. Delicacy? The cuvée A will satisfy you.

Our story

The vineyard has belonged to the Siffrein family since 1856 but it is only in recent years that we have been fully managing the estate and that our wines have been marketed. I worked in wealth management and Siffrein is a microelectronics engineer, professional careers not really related to wine, yet we were sure that one day we would take over the estate, and that's what we did in 2007. No more grapes for the cooperative, we have kept our old quality plots of Grenache, Syrah and Carignan and started converting the land to organic farming in 2009. Logically, we have set up a 20-year programme to rejuvenate the vineyard, including the planting of 5 hectares of white grapes; Grenache blanc, Roussane, Viognier, gives a very balanced, fresh and aromatic blend: the elegant "Les Dimanches de Lignane" cuvée.
