Bettane & Desseauve

“The 2014 Château Lamothe-Bergeron offers a very earthy bouquet with fragrant notes of forest floor, in a classic Graves style. [...] The palate is much better, with crisp tannins, notes of fresh blackberry, cedar, and tobacco, and a refined structure on the finish. [...] Well-made, but will need time.” (Wine Advocate 2016 – Robert Parker) Delivered in a wooden case for any order of 6 bottles of this wine (excluding “Point Relais” delivery method)

Wine rated 14.5/20 (Good wine)

Rated estate (2021 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the wine:

Powerful tannins in a classic style, making it a benchmark for the vintage's fine Haut-Médoc wines.

About the estate:

A renowned estate that was all the rage in the 19th century, this “sleeping beauty” awoke in fine form four years ago, thanks to its acquisition by the Mounier cognac house. Laurent Méry serves as its director. Located between Margaux and Saint-Julien on gravelly terroirs, the vineyard spans nearly 70 hectares, planted equally with Cabernet and Merlot. Extensive renovations have been undertaken to restore the château to its former glory. Modern and avant-garde, with guidance from Hubert de Boüard (Château Angélus), the wine retains its finesse and elegance.

Rated Estate (2021 Guide) Award-Winning Wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

A "cru bourgeois" that has been producing wine since the Middle Ages. It owes its name to the agronomist Jacques de Bergeron, who developed a grafting method in the early 19th century. Surrounded by a 19th-century building, the vineyard covers nearly 80 hectares and is owned by the H. Mounier and Hardy cognac houses.
