The 2010 vintage received the following rating: RVF 16/20
Charming and indulgent, this rosé shines with its richness and complexity. The freshness of the Tibouren and the smoothness of the Mourvèdre give it a special place in the estate’s lineup: it is the rosé for special occasions!

Eye
Very light salmon-pink color with some golden hues, very bright
Nose
Very fresh, with notes of white flowers and aromas of exotic fruits; a lovely aromatic bouquet
Palate
A lively yet almost gentle attack, thanks to its noticeable roundness. This wine, with its many charms, offers a beautiful balance and a pleasant, lingering finish.

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated Estate (2020 Guide) Selected (An estate or winery that impressed us with one or more of its wines, though we are unable to offer a general assessment of the style of its entire range)
About the estate:
La Courtade, one of three estates on the magnificent island of Porquerolles, was purchased in 2014 by Édouard Carmignac, manager of the eponymous investment fund and a prominent art collector. Since then, the reception area has undergone major renovations. Indeed, the Carmignac Foundation has taken up residence there to exhibit the owner’s highly eclectic and specialized collection. Renovating the old cellar had not been on the agenda until now, though that seems set to change in the near future. While the wines now feature new, highly creative labels, the overall experience leaves us wanting more. A disappointing development given the magnificent character of the wines prior to the estate’s takeover. Let’s hope that very soon the wine will receive the same attention that Mr. Carmignac devotes to his art. The terroir deserves it.
