Château Lamartine

Château Lamartine is a 32-hectare family estate, planted mainly with Malbec grapes on the terraces of the Lot valley in the South-West region of France. Originally a very large estate dating back to Gallo-Roman times, Château Lamartine suffered the ravages of the wars of the Middle Ages and managed to survive until the Philloxera attack in 1878. A few plants of Auxerrois (Malbec) were nevertheless preserved by Edouard Serougne, who fell in love with the owner and this grape variety in the 1920s. As early as 1930, he motivated a handful of colleagues to found the first Cahors Wine Defense Union.

Château Lamartine is one of the region's best-known names, as the quality and consistency of its wines are unanimously appreciated with each new vintage. The different vintages of Château Lamartine express, through their origins, their terroir and their historic grape variety, all the typicity of the Cahors vineyard. Château Lamartine wines are rare, expressive, concentrated and carefully matured.
