CHATEAU SAINT-MARTIN-DES-CHAMPS

CHATEAU SAINT-MARTIN-DES-CHAMPSLocated in the middle of Languedoc at a few kilometers of the Mediterranean and on the first slopes of the Cevennes, the Château Saint Martin des Champs, was built at the XVIIe century near a Hermitage of VIIe century, where halt the pilgrims made who went to Saint-Jacques de Compostelle. The splendid buildings are integrated since their origin in the vineyard. Witnesses of the history, the immense stables and the tanks with wines built out of stone, go back to 1752 and are always in services in the wine storehouses. The owners, Pierre and Michel Birot, are vine growers of wire father since 1675. They cultivate in a way reasoned and with love, their vineyard of 98 ha, established on grounds argilo-limestones ideally southern talks full. They mature with passion and rigor these great wines, thus satisfying the love which they carry to their trade.
The 2008 are a very beautiful vintage on the rosé ones. 2007 are a superb vintage on the schistous part thus on the red Tradition. The 2006 are very well-balanced, the 2005 is more complex, but very nice on the vintage Terrasses de Fontenilles. The 2004 are exceptional on the Mathieu vintage and the 2003 are very hot and slightly alcooleux.
