Bettane & Desseauve
Winery rated 1*Star (A high-quality, recommendable production that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))
About the estate:
Victor and Vincent Lebreton are devoted advocates of the Coteaux-de-l’Aubance. The brothers took over the family estate in 1986 and cultivate 60 hectares of vineyards across various plots with different types of schist. This allows them to craft single-vineyard wines with subtle nuances, reflecting the character of the blue schist (Le-Tertereaux), gray schist (Clos-des-Huttières), or purple schist (Le-Clos-Prieur). A charming winery that offers reasonable prices. Unsurprisingly, the range’s finest wines come from the Aubance vineyard. The reds are simple and approachable, designed for immediate enjoyment.

About the estate:
This estate, located on the outskirts of Angers, is a regional leader, particularly when it comes to “Angers delicacies,” with superb Coteaux-de-l’Aubance wines on the menu. At the helm of the estate founded by his grandfather, Victor, and expanded by his father—also named Victor—Vincent Lebreton, who has been in charge since 1995, manages (in a very thoughtful manner) 75 hectares of slate-based terroir. The sixth generation is now working alongside him.

About the wine:
On the nose, very elegant oak aromas set the tone. On the palate, woody and vanilla flavors blend beautifully with notes of hazelnut and toasted almond, while a few tart red berries invigorate the taste buds. Even the floral aromas take center stage, allowing us to savor the hints of peony that perfume the entire wine. The wine’s lovely acidity and freshness suggest it still has plenty of potential, and it might be worth aging it a bit longer to explore new facets.
