Expert opinion

Bettane & Desseauve

Bettane & Desseauve

Domaine rated (guide 2023) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)

About the domain :

An emblematic Bergholtz estate for two generations now. The 18 hectares of biodynamic vineyards are the result of the union of Jean Dirler and Ludivine Cadé. In the range, the fine terroirs of Saering, Kitterlé, Kessler and especially Spiegel have great ageing potential, allowing the slight residual sugars to melt away.

Wine rated (2020 guide) 16/20 (Very good wine)

Domaine rated (guide 2023) 2*Stars (These great estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, must be included in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).

About the wine:

On the Saering, Muscat plays a score of finesse, with well-defined, crisp fruit and an ample finish.

About the domain :

Sensitive and experienced winemakers, Jean Dirler and his wife Ludivine are at the helm of this estate, founded in 1871, handed down from father to son for five generations, and biodynamic since 1998. Whatever the grape variety, the precision of the wines, their density and maturity have never been better: an impressive range of great dry white wines culminates in the magnificent expressions of the Spiegel, Saering, Kessler and Kitterlé grands crus, which must be discovered, and which are now named after the four elements (fire, air, earth, water). This too discreet house offers a remarkable welcome, and many wines are available in older vintages.

Rated wine (2019 guide) 91/100

Rated domain (guide 2022) Recommended

About the wine:

This wine has aromas less typical of the Muscat grape than we usually find, and is more complex with notes of citrus, anise, light smoke, dill and green pepper. Dry and sharp, this white has real acidic crispness and peppery notes on the green-tinged palate. Made from organically grown grapes. Drink now.
