“The 2022 Morgon Côte du Py Javernières displays remarkable clarity and complexity on the nose: vibrant red fruits, wilted rose petals, and crushed stone. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with supple tannins. Fresh and concentrated, it develops gently into a taut, slightly spicy, and fairly persistent finish. A wine of true class. ” (Vinous 2023)

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2023 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)
About the estate:
This iconic Beaujolais estate, renowned for both its history and its reputation, is a shining star in Morgon and throughout the Beaujolais region. The vineyard spans 13 hectares, five of which are located on the Côte de Py. At the helm of the estate, Claude-Emmanuelle and her brother Louis-Benoît—known for their rigor and attention to detail—are the worthy successors to a tradition of excellence. The most recent vintages, combining finesse and richness, are consistently elegant.

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Rated estate (2023 guide): 3*Stars (These represent the pinnacle of French winemaking. The finest terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical experience)
About the estate:
Anyone who has tasted a wine from the Desvignes siblings—Claude-Emmanuelle and Louis-Benoît—has experienced a special emotion. Here, the pursuit of aesthetic excellence focuses on the subtle expression of specific vineyard sites (primarily in Morgon), the precise balance of the wine according to the vintage, and its aging potential—all resulting from meticulous viticulture, sensitive winemaking free from dogma, and refined, wood-free aging. The estate has held its third star for several years now, and given the consistency and coherence of its lineup, we suspect it will remain there for many years to come.
