Bettane & Desseauve

(2016 vintage notes)

The red version of this cuvée is expressive, revealing aromas of beautiful ripe red fruits and slightly peppery spices. Built on an elegant tannic structure, the whole is not without freshness, brought by a beautiful minerality. A complex, frank, and most charming Faugères...

Bettane & Desseauve

Bettane & Desseauve

Wine rated 14.5/20 (2016 vintage) (Good wine)

Rated estate (2021 guide) 1*Star (A serious production, recommendable, in line with what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the estate:

This property made Faugères great in the 1990s, before being taken over by Julien Seydoux, who came here with the modesty to learn about the terroir and the desire to bring Les Estanilles back to the forefront. The wines are gradually adapting to the raw materials and still have room for improvement. The reds are powerful and flavorful, wines with strong personalities.

Hachette Wine Guide

Guide Hachette des vins

Rated estate (2021 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines are regularly recognized by the guide)

About the estate:

In 2009, self-taught Julien Seydoux bought this 44-hectare estate, which is run organically and produces some truly remarkable Faugères wines. A sure bet.
