Notes - The 5 hectare estate of Chateau Le Grand Sigognac is located in the city of St Ysans du Medoc, on the plateau of Blaignan, reknowned for producing some of the best wines of the appellation. The vines were planted in 1988 and 1989 and are 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot. 20% of the wine is aged in new oak barrels, 40% in one-year barrels and the rest in vats and approximately 20,000 bottles are produced. The wine is elegant and supple with good Cabernet fruit, there are spicy notes, oaky notes and good, soft tannins. There are also hints of earthiness and spices. Will age well over three to four years but is drinking well now.
