Winery Overview
Witness to an epic story spanning several centuries, Château de Haute-Serre rises 300 meters above sea level on the historic Quercy hillsides of the Cahors vineyards.
Among the highest and rarest densities on the plateau, the 60 hectares of vines are nurtured by the singularity of the Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soil, enriched with blue clay and iron concretions, revealing a singular and exceptional expression of Cahors Malbec. Atypical, racy wines with a long finish and perfectly chiselled silky tannins.
Close to the saffron fields of Laburgade and just a few kilometers from Lalbenque, the famous capital of the "Tuber Melanosporum" black truffle, the Château was bought by the Vigouroux family in 1971. Today, it is run by Bertrand-Gabriel Vigouroux, an expert Malbec winemaker, who strives to bring out the very best in this "work of Nature", and never ceases to enhance this unique terroir, a mecca for biodiversity.
Château de Haute-Serre is an exceptional stage in the discovery of French Malbec, and an unmissable meeting place for oenophiles and epicureans. We open the doors of our winery to share our Malbec Art de vivre through a convivial and gourmet Table vigneronne, oenological workshops and themed evenings.
