Where are Mark Haisma wines made?
Mark Haisma operates as a micro-négoçiant based in Burgundy, France. While he doesn’t own vineyards, he sources fruit from long-term partnerships with trusted growers across multiple regions, including Burgundy, Beaujolais, and the Northern Rhône Valley. His winery is located in a small facility in Gevrey-Chambertin, where he vinifies and ages his wines. Despite being Australian by birth, Haisma’s connection to French viticulture is deeply rooted in traditional values, yet executed with a modern sensibility. He maintains strong relationships with vignerons who share his commitment to sustainable practices and careful viticulture. The diversity of vineyard sources allows him to craft a wide-ranging portfolio—from Côte de Nuits Pinot Noir and Côte de Beaune Chardonnay to Crozes-Hermitage Syrah—all united by a philosophy of low-intervention winemaking. His wines are quintessentially French in structure, but with a global outlook that reflects both technical skill and creative freedom.

What are the best Mark Haisma wines?
Some of the standout wines from Mark Haisma’s portfolio include his Gevrey-Chambertin and Morey-Saint-Denis Pinot Noirs, which are praised for their precision, aromatic lift, and silky texture. These wines often show the classic hallmarks of their respective villages—structure and earthy depth in Gevrey, elegance and red-fruited charm in Morey—without being overly extracted or oak-dominant. Among his whites, the Saint-Romain Chardonnay is a consistent favourite, offering limestone-driven minerality and citrus zest in a beautifully restrained frame. From the Rhône, his Crozes-Hermitage and Saint-Joseph Syrahs are gaining attention for their peppery aromatics, fine tannins, and excellent drinkability. His Beaujolais-Villages also represents outstanding value, bringing vibrant fruit and textural clarity. What unites these wines is Haisma’s deft touch: minimal intervention, purity of fruit, and a clear sense of place. Each vintage may yield subtle variations, but the overarching consistency of style and expression places these cuvées among the most respected in the modern négoçiant landscape.

Are Mark Haisma wines affordable?
Mark Haisma wines are considered relatively affordable when compared to the prestige-driven pricing of many Burgundy and Rhône producers. While they are not entry-level wines, they offer strong value in terms of quality-to-price ratio, especially considering the calibre of vineyard sources and the meticulous winemaking involved. His Beaujolais and Bourgogne-level bottlings are particularly well-priced and serve as excellent introductions to his style. The village and premier cru Burgundies, while more expensive, are still typically priced lower than equivalent wines from domaine producers, despite often matching or surpassing them in quality. Wines from the Northern Rhône—such as his Crozes-Hermitage and Saint-Joseph—also strike a good balance between finesse and affordability. Haisma’s model as a small-scale négoçiant allows him to maintain both flexibility and fair pricing. For enthusiasts seeking artisanal wines that reflect classic French terroirs with clarity and soul, Mark Haisma's wines present an appealing and accessible proposition.
