"Deep and dark, this 2018 vintage offers a delicate and complex bouquet combining red fruits, almonds, hazelnuts, and a hint of eucalyptus. Supple and fresh on the palate, it displays beautiful volume, supported by refined tannins throughout." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2022) Excellent value for money!

Bettane & Desseauve
Winery rated 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, consistent with what one would expect from its appellation(s))
About the estate:
Located in La Sauve-Majeure, in the heart of Entre-Deux-Mers, this estate has long been a classic producer of affordable Bordeaux wines in all three colors. The Courselle family, who oversee the château and its winemaking with talent and expertise, have created the archetype of a great wine address. Sylvie and Marie Courselle, Francis' daughters, have inherited the family passion. Both engineers and oenologists, they have now taken over the reins at Thieuley. The red, white and clairet wines are always well-structured, flavorful, delicious and balanced. Don't miss the particularly elegant Francis-Courselle cuvée.

About the estate:
The Courselle family's history in winegrowing began in 1949 when André Courselle purchased Ch. Thieuley, not far from La Sauve-Majeure. Under the leadership of Francis and, since 2004, his daughters Sylvie and Marie, the vineyard now covers 80 hectares and three crus: Thieuley, a benchmark in Bordeaux, Ch. Saint-Genès, intended for export, and Clos Sainte-Anne, 5 hectares of gravel in Capian.
