Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2026 guide) 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)
About the estate:
This vineyard, tucked away at the end of a hard-to-find path, is farmed organically by Marlène Soria. Marlène produces three red wines dominated by Syrah: Clos des Cystes, Syrah Léone (now known as Belle Léone), and, since the 2003 vintage, Marlène N° 3 from a new terroir. Les Cistes comes from the highest part of the estate, situated on very hard, stony soils. This cuvée has more acidity than Belle Léone, which is planted on more friable rocks that allow water to pass through easily: it is often the most sensual cuvée. Marlène N°3 is neither a third nor a second wine. As the estate’s third planting, it is certainly the best-planted of the plots, with a higher proportion of Grenache, and it is the one that benefits most from aging. As for the white wine, Oro is made from Rolle, Roussanne, and Viognier, complemented by several other Languedoc grape varieties. If one had to give Peyre Rose a synonym, it would surely be “One Thousand and One Nights,” so enchanting are its finishes.

Rated estate (2026 guide) 3*Stars (These represent the pinnacle of French winemaking. The finest terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical experience)
About the estate:
Almost 40 years ago, after a career in real estate, Marlène Soria acquired a plot of land in the hills above Saint-Pargoire. In the heart of the garrigue, she created her vineyard from scratch, first planting table grapes (Servant, Chasselas) and then wine grapes (Ugni Blanc, Syrah). Her first harvest was in 1988, but it was in 1993 that the success story began with the release of her first Servant white wine. That’s the story behind one of the most inspiring success stories in French winemaking. Today, the vineyards span 30 hectares, 10 of which are terraced. Her son joined her at the estate in 2012; the estate is completely energy self-sufficient thanks to wells and solar panels, ensuring winemaking practices that are 100% respectful of the surrounding environment. The style stands out: aging is very long, often more than ten years, yet also very subtle. The Oro white, sadly too rare, is the flagship of the Soria style. Less forceful, the reds reveal a fiery intensity that refines with time.
