Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Rated 14/20 (vintage 2013) (Good wine)
Domaine rated (2015 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one has the right to expect from its appellation(s))
About the domain :
The ten or so hectares planted on this north-facing slope of the Alpilles, on clay-limestone soils, produce increasingly accomplished reds that can evolve well over time, with a freshness on the finish that's just right. Neil Joyce can be proud of his latest vintages.
