Gerard Seguin
Seguin's wines come mainly from old vines between 60-90 years old planted in south facing, free-draining stone based soils and consistently produce wines of great power, concentration of fruit and longevity. Winemaking is very traditional - hand harvesting, cold maceration and 18 months maturation in 30% new oak barrels from Allier and Limousin.
The estate was founded in the 1850s by Alex Seguin, a Burgundian pioneer in the fight against Phylloxera - he was one of the first winemakers to graft vines onto American rootstock in an effort to prevent the spread of the disease.
A brand new winery was built in 1973, just before Gerard Seguin tookover control of the estate and the winemaking in 1977. He has been dedicated to the production of great wines under the Seguin name ever since.
