Château Gigognan Viognier is an expressive and finely crafted white wine made from organically grown Viognier grapes in the heart of the southern Rhône Valley. Harvested at optimal ripeness, the fruit is gently pressed and fermented in stainless steel to preserve purity and freshness, with partial ageing on fine lees to enhance texture and aromatic complexity.

The nose is fragrant and layered, revealing notes of honeysuckle, apricot, and ripe pear, complemented by hints of quince, citrus zest, and subtle almond. On the palate, the wine is generous yet poised, offering a silky mouthfeel lifted by bright acidity and a delicate mineral tension that brings balance and precision.

Both opulent and refined, this Viognier delivers richness without excess, making it an elegant partner to seafood, lightly spiced cuisine, or creamy cheeses. Ideal for those who value aromatic whites with depth, structure, and finesse.

Château Gigognan is a historic estate located in the southern Rhône Valley, at the heart of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation. With roots dating back to the Middle Ages, the château is today known for its commitment to organic and biodynamic farming, respecting both terroir and tradition.

The estate works predominantly with classic Rhône varieties such as Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre, sourced from diverse soils including galets roulés, sands, and limestone. Château Gigognan combines careful vineyard work with precise, low-intervention winemaking to produce wines that balance power, freshness, and elegance.

Renowned for both its Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Côtes du Rhône wines, Château Gigognan expresses the character of the Rhône with depth, purity, and a strong sense of place.
