Bettane & Desseauve

“Mineral with hints of candied citrus, this cuvée pairs perfectly with foie gras.” (Bettane & Desseauve Wine Guide 2019) Full-bodied and rich, the Quincy Vieilles Vignes is endowed with great freshness and a beautiful, pronounced tension that gives it length and dynamism. Best enjoyed within 5 years to appreciate the freshness and fruitiness of the Sauvignon!

Rated wine (2019 guide) 16/20 + Favorite (Very good wine)

Winery rated 1 star (A high-quality, recommended wine that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the wine:

Mineral with hints of candied citrus, this wine pairs perfectly with foie gras.

About the estate:

Jean Tatin, a native of Quincy, will enthusiastically tell you all about his terroirs. His daughter Maroussia joined him in 2010 and is gradually bringing her own personal touch to the estate’s wines, which remain simple and well-crafted. The vineyard spans 25 hectares in Quincy, on the slopes of the Cher River, and since 2003, also includes 8 hectares in Reuilly on the slopes of the Arnon River. The reasonable prices and warm hospitality are definite assets, and the single-vineyard whites from Quincy are particularly worth trying.
