Winery Overview
Discover Château de Haute-Serre, located in Cahors, neighbouring the Laburgade saffron fields, a few kilometres from Lalbenque, famous capital of the Tuber Melanosporum black truffle.
Haute-Serre became an unequalled winemaking site in south-west France. From the sale of his very first vintage of AOC Cahors in 1976, Georges Vigouroux’s bet paid off and Haute-Serre was recognised as a first true ‘Cru’ from Cahors. Now his son, Bertrand-Gabriel Vigouroux, continues his father’s work. He aims to achieve excellence with high-density replanting, use of eco-friendly vine-growing and tending techniques, ageing in new oak barrels, trials with wood from different origins and work on toasting suitable for Malbec.
At Château de Haute-Serre, gastronomy, wine and art combine to offer a hedonistic experience for all the senses.
The Château's restaurant La Table de Haute-Serre, rewarded by the Michelin BIB Gourmand, features delicious cuisine based on local produce. This atmospheric restaurant in a stone cellar marries ancient walls with contemporary style. The Chef serves refined, inventive cuisine that skillfully combines ‘terroir’ and modernity.
Guests are welcomed in a chai (wine storeroom) renovated in a perfect marriage of tradition and modernity and embellished with numerous artworks.
A great pleasureseeking stop off on the wine route, a rendezvous place for oenophiles and gourmets, Château de Haute-Serre is a site dedicated to agritourism: “bistronomie” in the winery, vineyard tours, tasting workshops, harvesting workshops, and cooking courses based on theme sequences, are available.
