Bettane & Desseauve
"The wine is delicate and very pure, with a final expression of this sunny climate on a soil of deep clay and limestone pebbles" (Le Guide Vins Bettane & Desseauve). (Le Guide des Vins Bettane & Desseauve) Adorned in a robe of light, the wine offers a fleshy, perfectly balanced texture and a broad, penetrating body.
