"A gourmet cuvée, enhanced by a hint of violet candy, reminiscent of childhood!"
"Pinot Noir (66%) and Chardonnay for this partridge-eye rosé, interesting for its complexity (quince, undergrowth, sweet spices, lilac, orange zest, alongside red fruits)." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2025)

Bettane & Desseauve
Winery rated 2 stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
This brand from the Côte des Bar cooperative winery (which nicely describes itself as a "winemakers' house") in Aube has come a long way and effectively demonstrates the undeniable potential of this "southern" terroir in the Champagne wine region. Apart from the premier cuvée, which remains below the rest of the range, the champagnes have a distinct personality, as evidenced, for example, by the surprising Pinot Blanc.

About wine:
Pinot Noir (66%) and Chardonnay are used to make this partridge-eye rosé, which is interesting for its complexity (quince, undergrowth, sweet spices, lilac, orange zest, alongside red fruits).
About the estate:
This cooperative in Aube, founded in 1956, now has 130 members who cultivate 315 hectares spread across ten villages in the Arce Valley, near Bar-sur-Seine. Pinot Noir, the king of grape varieties in the Côte des Bar, is the most widely grown variety in the region.

About the estate:
Founded in 1956, the cooperative now brings together no fewer than 130 winegrowers and covers a total of 315 hectares of vineyards. Overlooking the Arce Valley in the heart of the Côte des Bar, this "winegrowers' house" is housed in a large, characterful 19th-century building. In a terroir where Pinot Noir reigns supreme, the landscape, with its alternating vineyards and forests, promotes biodiversity and allows for an environmentally friendly approach. The range has been expanded with two new certified organic vintages ("Les Authentiques") and a new visitor and tasting area in the estate's cellars, as well as a scenography called "Les Effervescentes" are waiting to be discovered. Of particular note is a vintage Pinot Blanc cuvée, a specialty of the estate.

Review and opinion by Mr. STEPHANE B. Published on 11/16/2024
A very nice champagne, with a nose of rose petals, raspberry, redcurrant, fine and delicate. The palate is elegant, with fine bubbles and roundness, and a delicate freshness. A balanced champagne, perfectly dosed, which after aeration reveals a certain power that suggests it would pair well with a meal featuring dishes chosen specifically for it. Excellent value for money!
