Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2026 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)
About the estate:
Mathieu Baudry has taken full advantage of this exemplary estate in Cravant, which also grows black Melanosporum truffles. His father Bernard continues to support him in the vineyard and the cellar. They have built their reputation on Cabernet Franc wines that are suitable for aging, sappy, dense, and long-lasting, on an estate that covers 30 hectares cultivated organically. The cuvées are named after the terroirs that produce them and are still affordable. Les-granges blends grapes from gravelly and clay soils to produce a supple and fresh wine, while les-grézeaux, grown on clay-siliceous soils, has a beautiful finesse and structure that allows the wine to age well. Deeper, La-Croix-Boissée offers a wine with a tannic heart brought by the clay-limestone soils. The vines of Clos Guillot produce a fleshy, smooth and full-bodied wine, tailor-made for long aging. A superb address that has produced a very successful 2019 vintage.

About wine:

About the estate:
Bernard Baudry seeks to capture the silky, refined character of Chinon wines, while remaining as faithful as possible to their terroir. This approach, which he pursues with his son Matthieu, is complemented by organic certification and has inspired them to plant ungrafted vines, which have been growing freely for 10 years (following Charles Joguet's plantings in the 1980s), as well as to establish vineyards on forgotten terroirs, such as the excellent Clos Guillot. La Croix Boissée (clay-limestone terroir of Cravant-les-Coteaux), built for aging, has an extra velvety texture and sometimes sweetness in hot years, which could delight Saint-Émilion lovers. This cuvée naturally takes the lead among the great reds of Touraine; however, beware of the animality found in certain cuvées.

About wine:
Les Grézeaux 2023 offers pure, fresh fruit aromas with lively, mouthwatering acidity. It comes from vines growing on gravelly sand just opposite the winery. The mid-palate is distinctly fleshy, even if it doesn't quite reach medium body. This wine was aged in cement vats rather than oak barrels and offers young fruity notes of blackberry and raspberry. It has a savory smoky touch that could come from the gravel or a slight reduction. The 2023 can be enjoyed within the first six to nine years of its life.
