Château Lestignac

Located in the Dordogne in the Bergerac appellation, the estate extends over 13 hectares and benefits from a sunny oceanic climate. The vines are planted on three different terroirs in a very diversified natural environment where the flora is indigenous. The vines are treated with biodynamic preparations; polyculture, no sulphur for the reds and animal traction for a small area. For the whites, the grape varieties cultivated are semillon, ugni blanc and muscadelle and for the reds, there are merlots, cabernets francs and sauvignons.

Our story

A young couple of passionate winegrowers, we took over the estate with Camille in 2008 and today we are 3 people working at the estate with Jean Marie's company without whom nothing would be possible. Respectful of the soil and the vines that surround us, we have turned to organic farming from the beginning and biodynamic farming since 2010. This approach, not being a goal in itself, helps us in our search for sincerity through our wines. We grub up and replant to redensify the vines, which produce less but better.
