Bettane & Desseauve

“With about 60% Roussanne, balanced by Grenache Blanc and Clairette, the 2017 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc Prestige offers subtle notes of honey and toast on the nose, then fills the mouth with a lovely smoothness and notes of pineapple and mandarin. It is crisper and more concentrated than the ripe, round 2018 vintage, but is it better? That depends on your personal preferences.” (Wine Advocate 2019 – Joe Czerwinski) A truly unique experience! Delivered in a wooden crate for any order of 6 bottles of this wine (excluding “Pickup Point” delivery method)

Wine rated (2020 guide) 15,5/20 (Very good wine)

Rated estate (2024 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the wine:

More full-bodied than the classic vintage, beautifully aged. Creamy texture, with a rich, lingering finish of yellow fruit. Long finish. Great potential.

About the estate:

Located on Courthézon’s finest terroirs, the Domaine de la Janasse—the pride of the Sabon family—has stood out for over 40 years as one of the appellation’s leading producers. Christophe Sabon produces Côtes-du-Rhône wines of the highest caliber, with rare depth. The Châteauneuf-du-Pape wines are expressed through various cuvées: Chaupin, from a cooler terroir with a distinctly Burgundian character, and the Vieilles-Vignes cuvée, which is sunnier and more refined. Finally, the whites—though often overshadowed by the reds—are just as highly recommended. The entire range is impeccable, and the top cuvées rank among the appellation’s finest.

Rated Estate (2024 Guide) Award-Winning Wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

A regular in the Guide, often highly ranked for its Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Côtes-du-Rhône, and IGP wines. A 90-hectare vineyard spread across multiple plots, managed by Christophe Sabon and his sister Isabelle, the children of Aimé Sabon, who founded the estate in 1973. The estate was expanded in 2015 with the purchase of Clos Saint-Antonin and its 15 hectares of vineyards in the town of Jonquières.

Rated Estate (2024 Guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)

About the estate:

This large estate, which has belonged to the Sabon family for generations, ranks among the elite of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The Châteauneuf-du-Pape vineyards are primarily located in the commune of Courthézon, with a variety of plots and soil types reflected in the estate’s various cuvées. The estate also produces splendid (and high-volume) Côtes-du-Rhône wines from vineyards adjacent to the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation. With often very high levels of ripeness, the wines are opulent in style, sometimes a bit too warm in sunny vintages. On the other hand, the tannins and textures are always exceptionally refined. In recent vintages, the wines have been less focused on richness and have become slightly more approachable.
