Notes: RVF 15.5/20, Bettane & Desseauve 15/20 (Ready to enjoy now)
Like the estate’s 2010 vintage, the Sept Vignes cuvée is a rich and refreshing wine that immediately opens with aromas of hawthorn, iris, and peonies... A well-rounded Côtes de Brouilly that showcases black fruit. Not to be missed!

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2023 guide): 4* Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)
About the estate:
Château Thivin has embarked on a renovation of its vineyard, with a focus on soil management. As part of its transition to organic farming, trellising on the steepest plots—such as La Chapelle—is now the standard practice. The range is extensive: fruit-forward whites and reds, as well as Côte de Brouilly wines (Sept Vignes, Griottes de Brulhié). The magnificent trio of Godefroy, Chapelle, and Zaccharie particularly impressed and moved us this year. A must-visit for wine lovers and a source of truly great wines.

About the estate:
This historic estate remains a benchmark for classic, age-worthy Beaujolais, and the 2019 vintage is a fine success. As I wrote last year, the Geoffrays have banned herbicides and insecticides from their vineyards and are among the most conscientious growers in the appellation, working toward organic certification. In the cellar, winemaking is traditional, with semi-carbonic maceration and aging generally in large oak casks—though some small cuvées see a bit of new oak. A staple of France’s finest restaurants—and this writer’s table—all readers unfamiliar with these wines are strongly encouraged to seek them out. This year, the Brouilly Reverdon deserves a special mention, as it is particularly successful.

Review by Mr. JEAN LUC L. Published on January 4, 2014
Opened at lunchtime to pair with a magnificent flank steak. When I first opened it, the wine seemed completely closed off. I brought out the decanter. I started tasting it 45 minutes later, and that’s when the magic happened: On the nose, an explosion of red fruits. All the aromas are at their finest; no ugly duckling to disrupt the dance. Fruit, fruit, and more fruit—and the good kind. Visually, it’s carmine red—vibrant, brilliant, and beautiful. On the palate, more fruit, but also a hint of candy—a true treat. In short, we thoroughly enjoyed this bottle, which turned out to be excellent.
