Sauvignon

wine for enthusiasts

"Surprising!"

Unique in character, Fleur reveals fruity notes of pear and citrus, as well as spring white flowers—a far cry from the varietal aromas typical of Sauvignon. On the palate, it is rich, full-bodied, and generous, with a fresh, briny finish that makes this wine very easy to drink. A wine for lovers of natural-style wines!

Bettane & Desseauve

Winery rated 1*Star (A high-quality, recommendable production that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the estate:

Isabelle Carles and Franck Pascal, who moved to Vélines in 2000, have chosen to produce pure, sulfur-free wines that are both easy to drink and fruity—wines meant to be enjoyed. Certified biodynamic since the 2011 vintage, the 19-hectare estate has always been managed according to the principles of organic farming, in order to preserve both the environment and their health. It was a wise decision, for without falling into the trap of “natural wine”—where fermentation runs wild—they produce a lovely, fairly consistent range of wines, crafted according to the terroir, without technical fuss, in the Burgundian style.

Wine rated (2021 guide) 90/100 (2018 vintage)

Rated winery (2021 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these wineries)

About the estate:

Located on clay-limestone soil overlooking the right bank of the Dordogne, this estate has emerged as one of the driving forces behind Bergerac’s revival. Isabelle Carles and Franck Pascal craft lively, pure wines with intense character and great freshness, which they offer at very affordable prices. The reds are sulfur-free and contain no additives, even at bottling. This approach is executed with precision: after aeration, the wines remain clean and well-structured, with perfect, natural acidity.
