Identity

Château Rollin is a winegrowing estate located in Saint-Sauveur, in Gironde. The estate is owned by the Martin family.

History and philosophy

Château Rollin boasts a history dating back to the 19th century. Remaining within the family, the property was handed down to the four children in 2002 under a Groupement Foncier Agricole (GFA) structure. A key turning point was reached in 2007 with the decision to manage both vinification and marketing directly at the estate.

The estate is committed to sustainable viticulture (agriculture raisonnée). This approach includes mechanical soil management, reduced pesticide use and optimised vineyard treatments. Château Rollin is AREA-certified.
