Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2018 guide): 2 stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous vintage)
About the estate:
An exceptional terroir, whose soil has never seen a single chemical input. The 20-hectare vineyard is spectacular, consisting entirely of terraces clinging to the mountainside across an impressive elevation, with breathtaking views of the sea. Located in the historic, oldest part of the Cassiden vineyard, the estate as we know it today was established by Jules Savon, the village’s former mayor. Purchased in 1920 by the Zafiropulo family, it is now run by the younger generation, represented by Jonathan and his wife. The elegance of the estate’s wines unfolds on the palate like a summer breeze over the sea. The finest expression of the appellation, born of a great terroir.
