14,5/20
Bettane & Desseauve
This cuvée is a blend from various schist-soil plots, with 90% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, expertly balanced. The wine is full-bodied, rich, and concentrated, complemented by the vintage’s freshness. A beautiful red from the Loire Valley worth discovering!

Bettane & Desseauve
Wine rated (2019 guide) 14,5/20 (Good wine)
Rated 2 stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
This 45-hectare vineyard, 80% of which is planted with Chenin, produces a wide range of white wines. René handles the winemaking, while his older brother Christophe tends the vines. They aren’t organic, to be sure, but the soil is worked “their own way.” In the cellar, the same meticulous care prevails, with a variety of vats of all kinds (stainless steel, cement, cylindrical, buried, 30-hectoliter wooden vats by Stockinger...), suited to crafting nuanced and complex wines. The sweet wines are the estate’s great strength, as is the Savennières series (13 hectares), impeccably precise.
