Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2020 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)
About the estate:
Under the capable leadership of Ludovic David, with the full support of the Sénéclauze family—owners of the 40-hectare vineyard since 1935—this wine has gradually refined its tannin profile and the integration of its oak aging. Ludovic David has brought about a true revolution in the winemaking and aging of this wine, which is blessed with a remarkable terroir, equipping it with the most modern tools. This has allowed it to rediscover its Margaux character and, since 2010, to rival the best wines in the region.
Guide Hachette des vins
Rated estate (2022 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)
About the estate:
Straddling the towns of Margaux and Cantenac, this estate—founded in 1762—has been owned by the Sénéclauze family since 1935. At the helm of the 40-hectare vineyard since 2009 is a new director, Ludovic David, an agricultural engineer who cut his teeth in the Libourne region working for Bernard Magrez. In 2019, a restaurant opened to complement the estate’s existing tourism offerings.

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Rated Estate (2023 Guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)
About the estate:
Owned by the Sénéclauze family, this understated wine has been gaining in density and precision over the past few vintages. This is due in part to Ludovic David, the estate’s director, who has taken charge of the vineyard and modernized the winemaking facilities. The goal of producing fuller-bodied wines—and, above all, those with velvety tannins—is clearly evident; all that’s missing is a touch more refinement, which seems to be emerging in the very latest vintages.
