Bettane & Desseauve

“Deep color, a rich and dense nose of black fruit; the palate is creamy, firmly supported by an imposing tannic structure. A serious wine! ” (The Bettane & Desseauve Guide to French Wines 2014). A red wine characterized by lovely spicy notes on the nose and fullness on the palate, with a delicate mineral note—the signature of the terroir. A must-try!

Bettane & Desseauve

Wine rated (2014 guide) 14,5/20 (Good wine)

Rated estate (2015 guide): 1*Star (A well-crafted, recommendable wine that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the wine:

Deep color; a rich, dense nose of black fruit; the palate is creamy, firmly supported by an imposing tannic structure. A serious wine!

About the estate:

The Boiron estate is just a blowgun’s shot away from the center of the village of Astaffort, the Cabrel family’s stronghold. Merlot, Tannat, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Malbec grow side by side on the clay-limestone soils of this 10-hectare property.
