"On the edge of the Coulée de Serrant, discover this superb white wine with exceptional charm".
"This 2022 already has a compelling aromatic profile, full of vegetal sap and orchard fruit aromas. On the palate, it's structured, intense, firm and deeply aromatic, with flavors that seem to come from stone and rock as much as fruit, and with that sense of vegetal sap and leaf infusing the wine. This is a beautifully articulated wine with a singular character, from a very fine, very dry Loire vintage, and one that will certainly age well." (Decanter 2024). Wine delivered without capsule.

Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (guide 2024) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
About the domain :
This 45-hectare vineyard, 80% of which is planted with Chenin, produces all styles of white wine. René vinifies, while his elder brother Christophe works the vines. Not organic, of course, but the soils are worked "their way". In the cellar, the same care prevails, with a variety of vats of all kinds (stainless steel, cement, cylindrical, underground, Stockinger 30-hl wooden vats, etc.), capable of chiseling out nuanced, complex wines. The sweet wines are the estate's great strength, as is the series of savennières (13 hectares), impeccable in their precision. The small rosé and red cuvées are a step below, and the whites tasted this year are too irregular to retain the third BD.

About the wine:
This young 2022 still has a long life ahead of it, but it already has a convincing aromatic profile, full of vegetal sap and orchard fruit aromas. On the palate, it's structured, intense, firm and deeply aromatic, with flavors that seem to come from stone and rock as much as fruit, and with that sense of vegetal sap and leaf infusing the wine. This is a beautifully articulated wine of singular character, from a very fine, very dry Loire vintage, and one that will certainly age well.

About the wine:
The Savennières Roche aux Moines 2022 is remarkably dense, with full body, lovely apple nuances and floral notes. It's ripe but not overripe, nicely structured, with ripe phenolic notes that give it real bite and a good reason to make your mouth water.
