Jacky Marteau, son of Jean and father of Ludivine, took over the estate in 1977 after working several years on the family estate. He developed bottled wine sales and later opened exports around 1985. After more than 30 years of work, the estate has established itself as a quality reference, with its white Sauvignon as its emblem, representing over 60% of export sales.
Our wine estate is located in the commune of Pouillé (41), on exceptional terroir of the Cher hillsides. We benefit from oceanic influences linked to the wide valleys of the Loire and Cher, which moderate climate extremes throughout the year from spring to harvest.
Over the years, our production area has expanded to now reach 29 hectares, including 20 hectares of Sauvignon Blanc and 3.5 hectares of Gamay, our two main grape varieties.
In planting our vines, we have always respected the match between grape variety selection and the pedology of our soils in order to extract the quintessence for the expression of our wines.
