Château de Fargues
In Sauternes & Barsac, where morning mists from the Ciron meet warmer Garonne air, Château de Fargues represents rare continuity under the same family over centuries. Around the fortress‑like estate, the microclimate can trigger noble rot, Botrytis cinerea, only when humidity, drainage and ripeness align with precision.
Picking is done in successive passes (tries), entirely by hand and with uncompromising berry selection. Slow fermentations and élevage in French oak barriques focus on texture, stability and layered aromatics rather than simple sweetness.
The house style translates the appellation through balance: residual sugar held in check by acidity and extract, built for longevity and complexity. For premium portfolios, it’s a Sauternes reference that deliberately moves beyond dessert‑wine clichés while keeping an unmistakable regional identity.Château de Fargues
