Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2019 guide): 2 stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous vintage)
About the estate:
This vineyard, located in the heart of Davayé’s finest terroirs, is owned by the Mâcon Davayé wine school. For several years now, it has been courageously managed using organic farming methods, covering no less than 16 hectares, primarily within the Saint-Véran appellation. The winemaking approach here has a significant impact on the style of the wines, with very clean juices that undergo extended fermentation at low temperatures. The result is a modern and seductive profile. Of note is a rare and more original production of reds that we were unable to taste, and, as an aside, some highly esteemed goat cheeses!
