This new vintage from the estate, aged for nine months in oak barrels, reveals a Chardonnay with floral notes subtly intertwined with hints of vanilla. On the palate, it is vibrant, with a mineral freshness and lovely fruitiness at its core. A cheerful, well-balanced wine that’s a pleasure to uncork as an aperitif or to pair with poultry!

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2020 guide): 2 stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous vintage)
About the estate:
Julia Hubrich and Julien Gil are two passionate young winemakers who have been based for less than ten years on a rocky plateau just outside the Limoux appellation. They cultivate and vinify their nine hectares in the most natural way possible: “It’s not the cellar that improves the wine, but the work done by hand in the vineyard.” One cannot help but admire the progress and consistency of all the estate’s wines, which have become a must-try.

Rated estate (2021 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines are regularly recognized by the guide)
About the estate:
Two young winemakers and a young winery, established in 2006. Originally from Dresden, Julia trained in Montpellier and the Bordeaux region. As for Julien, a native of southern France who has been passionate about cooking and wine since his teens, he spent some time in the Médoc to learn the trade. The couple began by “saving” 2 hectares of old Carignan vines slated for uprooting, then acquired vineyards in the Limoux AOC. In total, 10 hectares.
