Clos Saint Martin

History
Clos Saint Martin was originally the vineyard belonging to Saint Martin’s Presbytery Church, a very attractive small 12th century church just next to the vineyard.
In this year, the bishopric sold this tiny vineyard to the Malen family.
Clos Saint Martin stayed in the same family until 2013.
The estate was then taken over in this same year by Sophie Fourcade-Reiffers, a descendant of the Malen family.
There is thus great continuity in the history of this pretty little estate.

Given the small size of the property, it isn’t possible for us to welcome large groups to the estate. However we are always pleased to receive wine enthusiasts searching for boutique wines.
