Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2019 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, consistent with what one would expect from its appellation(s))
About the estate:
This Châteauneuf-du-Pape-based winery has been brilliantly taken over by Samuel Montgermont and the Picard family. Drawing on its own vineyards (including 12 hectares in Châteauneuf-du-Pape) and partnerships with around thirty winegrowers, it produces very consistent, full-bodied and expressive wines, all highly representative of their respective appellations.
