Vignobles Lassagne gather several family properties that were bought since three generations and are grown according to tradition and innovation on unique terroir located in the Libourne area. Château La Salargue is located on the left bank of the Dordogne in the municipality of Moulon. At that time, its famous wines were shipped in barrels by barge. Here the vines benefit from a privileged terroir, the soil is clayey and loamy on gravel, the fruit of millions of years of work by the watercourse. In the Dordogne, it is humid in the mornings and wonderfully sunny in summer. This contributes to the optimal ripeness of the vines and grapes here. For more info, visit Vignobles Lassagne website.
