With its cherry-red color, L’Intégrale reveals a beautiful expression of Gamay on the nose—delicate and elegant, evoking spicy and fruity notes. A rich, well-structured red from the Loire Valley, to which barrel aging lends a lovely roundness and well-integrated oak. A lovely bottle to serve with a meal!

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2026 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)
About the estate:
Romain Payre has become one of the leading advocates for Gamay from the Côte Roannaise, where he has been excelling for several vintages now on his 21-hectare estate. The flagship wine is best enjoyed for its youthful fruitiness. The Clos Du Puy and Intégrale wines, which are suitable for moderate aging, come from vines that are over 80 years old. This is a highly recommended and reliable estate, regardless of the wine.

Rated estate (2026 guide) 1*Star (Rising stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a good standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
Georges Paire, who came from a family of livestock farmers, began planting his vineyard in the 1970s. In 2005, his son Romain joined him, and planting continued; the winemaking facilities were modernized, and the estate transitioned to organic farming. Today, the estate maintains a small herd of Limousin cows. We appreciate these meticulously crafted, authentic wines: a modern and dynamic embodiment of the appellation.

A Côtes Roannaises that isn't exactly light. A bit unusual for a Saint-Romain Gamay; it will likely need to be cellared for another 2 or 3 years.
