Château Saint Martin de la Garrigue is a historic Languedoc estate nestled between Montpellier and Béziers, with roots dating back to the 10th century. Surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and wild garrigue, the property combines old-world charm with a commitment to sustainable farming. Known for producing one of the top Picpoul de Pinets in the region, the estate harvests late for added depth and complexity, crafting wines that are fresh, mineral-driven, and perfectly suited to the local seafood—especially oysters from the nearby Étang de Thau. Today, the château continues to thrive under thoughtful stewardship, producing wines that capture the soul of southern France.
