History
A magnificent eighteenth-century manor house the Château Martinet was long used as a hunting lodge before becoming a vineyard giving one of Saint-Emilion’s most revered wines.
Rooted in a superb sand-gravel soil, the vines benefit from constant care and attention from the owners.
Regularly acclaimed at international wine fairs and contests, the wines of Château Martinet are blessed with a complex array of subtle flavors, accented with delicious red berry notes.
James Suckling: 93 Points
Notes of ripe plums and black cherries with layers of spice, such as anisette and cloves. Hints of chocolate, bark and wet stones. Medium-to full-bodied and tight with firm tannins. Round and velvety structure with a juicy-fruit sensation. Long finish with a floral touch to it. Merlot and cabernet franc. Very attractive.
