Bettane & Desseauve

(Notes from the 2013 vintage)

This single vineyard Luberon white wine is the first version produced by François Dauvergne and Jean-François Ranvier. It combines the freshness of Rolle and Clairette with the structure and richness of Grenache blanc. A rather big Pitchounette in its expressions of white stone fruits and citrus notes, it will find its place in your aperitifs, with a seafood risotto or even zucchini flower fritters.

Wine rated 14/20 (2013 vintage) (Good wine)

Rated estate (2022 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

François Dauvergne and Jean-François Ranvier are part of a new generation of young wine merchants in the Rhône Valley. Deeply involved in the production of their wines, they work with their winemaker friends throughout the year and preserve the expressions of the terroirs. The style is structured without excess, with perfect aromatic definition. The duo continues to evolve, and their range extends from Hermitage in the north to Luberon in the south, including Côte-Rôtie, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and Costières-de-Nîmes, and now even includes partnerships as far afield as Roussillon! Recently, the adventure has expanded to Bordeaux.

About the estate:

Founded in 2004 by François Dauvergne and Jean-François Ranvier, two wine professionals who decided to produce their own vintages after working for others, this wine merchant has gone from strength to strength over the years, producing high-quality wines from selected vineyards. In 2013, the two partners took over the Dom. des Muretins estate (Tavel and Lirac) and in 2014 developed a range of Bordeaux wines in collaboration with Patrice Hateau.
