Bettane & Desseauve

(2011 vintage notes)

A new vintage, the 2011 was rated: Bettane & Desseauve 16/20 (Bonheur tout de suite), RVF 14/20
A golden yellow color with green highlights leads to a nose of subtle citrus, exotic fruit and acacia flower aromas. The attack is fresh, with an ample, fruity and rich palate. A harmoniously balanced wine that will delight wine lovers...

About the domain :

Founded around 1850, this family-run estate has seen 6 successive generations. Following in the footsteps of his father Louis, Didier Barré, who settled here in 1983, contributed to the revival of Madiran, of which he was one of the standard-bearers. In 2017, sisters Claire and Marion Bortolussi (daughters of Alain Bortolussi of Ch. Viella) took over the destiny of this flagship 25-hectare estate, forging a partnership with wine merchant Lionel Osmin to manage the operation and market the cuvées.
