This lovely second wine, with its ruby color, harmoniously blends aromas of wild berries with subtle yet distinct oak notes on the nose. Its elegant tannins and smooth texture make it very appealing to drink right now; enjoy it with lamb or a nice cut of beef...

Bettane & Desseauve

Winery rated 1 star (A high-quality, recommended wine that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the estate:

Now it is the very serious and enthusiastic Mélanie Barton-Sartorius who is applying her expertise as an oenologist, combined with her family heritage, to this estate purchased five years ago by her parents. The result speaks for itself. A wine of character, with the exuberance of Moulis, the pedigree of the terroir, and the balance resulting from expert winemaking and grapes harvested at just the right moment. Undoubtedly an estate to watch, which is already making its mark in the appellation.

About the estate:

This estate, which had been struggling for some time, has been given a new lease on life since its acquisition by the Barton family (Léoville Barton and Langoa Barton). It is now run by Anthony’s granddaughter, Mélanie Sartorius. Today, the wines produced here reflect the velvety, smooth character that has made the family’s wines so successful. These are very approachable and highly recommended wines.
