THE LABEL

The label of the Château de Fargues has several characteristics: It is printed on a paper of type bill of
bank and with a particular font. Since the 1984 vintage, the label features a watermark with the Lur Saluces family coat of arms. To allow the expertise, the paper is sown with particles of different shapes and colors, depending on the manufacture, which are only visible under ultraviolet light.

From 1943 to 1999, the Fargues bottle bears a single label with the crown, the words “Château de Fargues”, “Lur Saluces”, “Sauternes”, the vintage, bottled at the château as well as the obligatory legal mentions that have appeared over the years. From 2000 to 2003, the label was stripped of the legal mentions which were placed on a band below and slightly detached from it. Since 2004, the legal mentions are moved to the back of the bottle on a transparent back label with golden ink.

NEW LABEL IN 2014



With the will to impose its singularity, the Château de Fargues has modified its label taking into account the history of the domain and the importance of the Lur Saluces family in the elaboration of Sauternes wine. The 2014 vintage inaugurates this new packaging. The crown of the Marquisate of Saluces is in blue, as it was on the first bottles. The signature “Lur Saluces”, inspired by those found in the archives of the property, is highlighted above the name of the castle because it is synonymous with excellence and persistence in the search for quality.

CORK

Chaque bouchon est sélectionné pour sa qualité optimum. Leur longueur est particulière, pour les bouteilles il est de 54 x 24 mm et pour les demi-bouteilles il est de 45 x 24 mm. Cette grande taille le rend très difficile à extraire sans l’abîmer. Il est de plus bien appliqué sur les faces intérieures du goulot auxquelles il adhère fortement. Chacun des bouchons comporte un bout « miroir » coté liquide et une étampe de la couronne de l’autre coté.

Ils portent tous le marquage du millésime, la marque « Château de Fargues » et l’empreinte de la couronne sur le roule.
