Vingt siècles d'histoire au Château de Saint-Martin

Le Château de Saint Martin est un magnifique domaine viticole de 100 hectares, composé de 50 parcelles de vignes.

Les Romains dès le Ier siècle avant J.C., pionniers de la viticulture en Gaule y établirent l'un des tout premiers domaines viticoles de France. Les moines de Lérins du Xe au XVIIIe siècle en firent un prieuré viticole, et y construisirent une superbe cave souterraine du XIIe et XVIe siècle, encore exploitée aujourd'hui.

Depuis 1740, une famille de la noblesse française se transmet le Château de génération en génération, notamment de femme à femme. Le seul homme à avoir dirigé le Château de Saint Martin est le Comte Edme de Rohan Chabot, grande personnalité du monde du vin. Aujourd'hui, Adeline de Barry, sa petite-fille, actuelle propriétaire du Château de Saint-Martin, souhaite raconter cette riche histoire à travers ses vins.

Vinification dans l'un des premiers grands domaines viticoles de France

Disposant de deux caves, les vignerons du domaine s'efforcent d'exprimer au mieux le terroir à travers leurs vins. Une cave de vinification ultra-moderne, avec ses cuves en inox, construites en briques Monomur, assure une isolation thermique naturelle extrêmement efficace.

Et une cave de vieillissement, construite par les moines aux XIIe et XVIe siècles, la cave souterraine, avec ses cuves creusées dans la roche, permet de faire vieillir les vins à une température fraiche et constante toute l'année, et une cave à barriques pour le vieillissement de certains rouges et vins cuits.

We stopped because we were coming. In the end, it was a very nice experience. Aurelie welcomed us with a big smile and gave us excellent wines. In the end, an unexpected stop turned into a 150 euro purchase. I highly recommend stopping to discover this magnificent place.

Had a fabulous visit to the wine cellar and interactive museum, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Wine tasting was amazing, thank goodness they gave us some bread and chutney or we would have been wobbling out! Excellent value for money.

We received a very warm welcome followed by a rich, surprising and very original visit. We spent two hours having fun, totally immersed in a family and generous atmosphere. The sensory and interactive museum is so much fun that we learn a lot. And to top it all off, the tasting of 6 very tasty and very interesting wines in terms of taste. In short, we had a great time, definitely go there if you are in the area. A big thank you to Angelique who made our rainy Saturday afternoon better.

I can recommend this castle and its tastings without hesitation! We have been able to visit several castles in Bordeaux, but this one has nothing to envy! We had an exciting time with someone who is passionate: an angel. It takes us into the flavors of Provence and the culture of this place... We came as a family and the museum of this castle is great fun for young and old!!!!

An unforgettable guided tour at Château Saint Martin. Nestled in a sumptuous estate, we were welcomed by Aurélie, who shared her passion for wines with us. The discovery of the cellars and the interactive museum was a real revelation, leaving us amazed. The tasting of the estate's wines, steeped in history, crowned this exceptional experience. We highly recommend this visit! A big thank you for this memorable experience.
