Family owned – small production – fascinating range of terroirs

Domaine Pierre Martin

Pierre Martin is acknowledged as one of the best wine tasters in the business – and in our eyes he is a pretty good winemaker too! In 2004, Pierre took over the 11.5 hectare estate from his father, who still acts as a consultant during the winemaking process. Their land covers two of the key Sancerre terroirs, the chalk earth of ‘Chavignol’ and the limestone/clay dominated soil of ‘Terres Blanches’ – hence the beautiful mineral quality possessed by Pierre’s wines.

It offers notes of cherry and blood orange with loads of minerality and refreshing acidity.
