Bettane & Desseauve

(2011 vintage notes)

Its brilliant pale gold color with green highlights heralds a fine, fresh nose, distilling notes of lemon and white-fleshed fruit. On the palate, it's fresh and fragrant, straightforward and supple, with a subtle hint of menthol. A wine and an appellation with character that won't go unnoticed!

Expert opinion

Bettane & Desseauve

Bettane & Desseauve

Wine rated (2014 guide) 14/20 (2011 vintage) (Good wine)

Domaine rated (guide 2023) 4*Stars (Top-quality producers, the glories of French winegrowing)

About the domain :

From Les Cazetiers to Bouzeron, this major Beaune trading house, founded in 1731, owns over 142 parcels in 130 hectares of vineyards, including 73 hectares of Premier and Grand Cru. This first-rate winegrowing heritage enables Fréderic Weber, a talented winemaker who was previously in charge of Château de Poncié, to produce around 600,000 bottles out of the total three million produced here each year, with most of the production coming from purchased grapes for the great reds, and carefully selected musts for the non-domain whites. Impressive success in both white and red wines in recent vintages.
