Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2026 guide): 2 stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous vintage)
About the estate:
Since 1998, Xavier Braujou has built a fine reputation with his estate located north of Montpellier, near Aniane. Production is limited, unfortunately, but it’s one of those cherished spots that people pass along by word of mouth. You can enjoy truly great wines there, such as the three reds tasted this year. Old vines, minimal yields, and meticulous work result in single-varietal wines that rank among the very best the Languedoc has to offer.

Rated estate (2026 guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)
About the estate:
The son of a winemaker, Xavier Braujou has been building his estate since 1998, which is divided between Aniane and Saint-Jean-de-Fos. This solitary and determined artisan winemaker, a former lumberjack, crafts wines of great character—the result of immense effort on old goblet-trained vines with very low yields, averaging around 20 hl/ha. His guiding principle can be summed up in two words: finesse and freshness. Far from the constraints of appellation regulations, he has always produced single-varietal wines and blends his different terroirs. Extraction is very gentle, aging is prolonged, and the wines never see new oak. A hidden gem and must-visit destination, prized by discerning wine lovers and top sommeliers alike. The exceptional quality observed over several vintages leads us to award him a second star without hesitation.
