Reviews and Ratings

Greg Hughes rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Chateau St. Martin makes some pretty historic wines. It has been passed down from daughter to daughter since the eighteenth century. Not only that, but their estate is also a cru classé since the inception of the Provence appellation, in 1955.
Pale pink/salmon colouration.
Pretty aromas of grapefruit, cherry, pomegranate, nectarine and whiteflower.
Super dry, bright, and refreshing. More refreshing lemon and grapefruit. Peachpit, raspberry, cherry, and with some lip-smacking minerality.
Put this with some cedar plank salmon or a light salad with berries and feta cheese.
Rachelle O'Connor rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Beautiful pink color wrapped in a beautiful package - this wine is soft and elegant. The nose shows some floral, cherry, grapefruit, raspberry and minerality. The palate is dry with lots of citrus coming through - lemon zest, lime juice and juicy grapefruit. So delicious on its own or with a roasted cauliflower grilled cheese or a loaded veggie wrap.
