Part of the estate is reserved for the production of dry white wines including La Demoiselle de Sigalas. The specific know-how of Sauternais winemakers allows Sigalas to produce them without the addition of antybotrytis. The winery’s driving choices are the same as for the Premier Cru Classé. The harvests are carried out manually in successive stages as they mature.The fermentation of the Sémillon is done in barrels, while to preserve fruit aromas, flowers and freshness, the Sauvignon is kept in stainless steel vats. The cellars are thermo-regulated.Both varieties are grown on fine lees. Before bottling, the two varieties are assembled by choosing the proportion of Sauvignon and Sémillon according to the vintages to keep them complex and freshness.
