Pas Saint Martin
Pas Saint Martin works with Chenin Blanc across the Middle Loire, drawing from the limestone-rich terroirs of Saumur and Anjou. The winery's portfolio centers on this single variety—a grape that defines the region's white wine character. Le Vent Dans Les Saules Chenin de Loire and La Pierre Frite Saumur Blanc represent the core of their output, both expressions of Chenin's mineral precision and aging potential. A third wine, Les Mille Rocs Anjou, extends the range across the broader appellation. Decanter has assessed the lineup, with the flagship Chenin de Loire reaching 90 points. The winery's focus on a single grape across distinct microclimates reflects the Loire's tradition of terroir-driven winemaking, where subtle shifts in soil and exposure shape the final wine.
