Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2023 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)
About the estate:
Recently taken over, this estate covers about 20 hectares and has established itself as very modern, both in its winemaking and its marketing approach, with “inspired” bottle labels and, above all, a boutique-bistro on the Banyuls waterfront where visitors can sample the wines in their natural setting. Nestled in the heart of the Roume Valley, the winery receives grapes from seven parcels spread across different terroirs within the appellation, allowing the winemaker to capitalize on their complementary characteristics during vinification. While their marketing is very savvy, in the vineyard, traditional cultivation methods are preserved, with the vines primarily trained using the gobelet or échalas systems.
Guide Hachette des vins
Rated Estate (2023 Guide) Award-Winning Wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)
About the estate:
Jacques Piriou and Romuald Peronne—the winemaker—joined forces to acquire Dom. Saint-Sébastien in 2008, which was renamed Clos Saint-Sébastien in 2014 following the acquisition of Clos Xatard. They made a grand entrance into the Guide with their Collioure wines. In Banyuls, they run a terrace restaurant overlooking the harbor, Le Jardin de Saint-Sébastien, and offer a boat tour to explore their 20 hectares of terraced vineyards from the water. Their wine list features exclusively Collioure and Banyuls wines.
