Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2024 guide): 3 stars (High-quality production, setting the standard in its sector)
About the estate:
Under the energetic and passionate leadership of Carol Duval, now supported by her sons, this house—established in 1859 in Vertus, on the Côte des Blancs—has continually raised its standards. The estate’s own vineyards are extensive, covering 200 hectares with a significant proportion of Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte des Blancs. This accounts for one-third of the house’s needs, which produces 5 million bottles annually. The cellar master is also a woman, Sandrine Logette-Jardin.

Rated estate (2024 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the wine:
Rosé production is on the rise, with a Premier Cru that impresses with the intensity of its crisp strawberry notes.
About the estate:
Located south of the Côte des Blancs, this family-run estate has thrived under the strong and energetic leadership of Carol Duval-Leroy, supported by her sons Julien and Charles. It is a recent success story embodied by a dynamic widow—just the kind Champagne loves. This Belgian woman, who is passionate about hunting, has transformed Duval into a modern, accessible brand that is now a partner to sommeliers. The cellar’s floor space (barrel vinification, storage) has doubled since 2009. Sandrine Logette, one of the few female cellar masters, has been overseeing vinification since 2007. She carries on the spirit of innovation in an eclectic range dominated by Chardonnay, featuring sparkling wines characterized by a creamy texture and fine bubbles.
