The region is famous for its wine. In fact, wine has been produced here since Roman times and the hotels’s own A.O.C. Bergerac wines have been produced for over 3 centuries.
Château des Vigiers produces its own award-winning wine and can organise private wine tastings at some of the most famous vineyards in the region., Bergerac vineyards are well worth a visit. Being close to the more famous vineyards of St Emilion and Bordeaux they are often underestimated- especially at top growers such as Guy Cuisset at nearby Chateau Grinou or Fabrice Feytout at Chateau Beauportail in Pecharmant. Bergerac reds are fruity and supple. They flatter the palate. They are typically for drinking young and can be a good everyday wine. Dry white wines from Bergerac can be fruity and zesty for drinking young; or they can be rich and round with a the complexity of oak barrel-aging when they are made for aging. The subtle, floral nose of these wines is remarkable. Sweet white Bergerac wines range from the medium dry to the luscious dessert wines of Saussignac
one of the most popular in SOUTH WEST FRANCE
