Saussignac is an appellation for sweet wines within the Bergerac wine region of southwestern France. Sandwiched between the much more famous appellations of Monbazillac and Bordeaux, the tiny output of Saussignac is often overlooked. Generally of a slightly drier style than Sauternes. Both appellations are produced from grapes affected by the noble fungus, Botrytis Cinerea, which dehydrates the grapes to raisins, leaving only the sweet sugary pulp for pressing.
