The estate and the wine |
|
|
Tucked away in a stunning landscape of garrigue and truffle oaks, Domaine Les Éminades is one of Saint-Chinian’s true hidden gems—a rock-solid reference point in the region. On this wild, sun-drenched land, Patricia and Luc Bettoni craft their wines like artists, working biodynamically to shape deep, delicate creations with pinpoint precision.
Their vineyard—rooted in limestone, sandstone, and rolled pebbles, and planted with old vines—produces some of the brightest stars of the southern Mediterranean. These are wines that are vibrant, complex, and irresistibly generous, always putting the fruit front and center. No surprise they’ve earned a star in the French wine guide RVF. |

The 2021 red Saint-Chinian Sortilège unveils itself with finesse and a delicate fruitiness. Aromas of rose, spices, potpourri, and flowers mark both the nose and the palate, creating a complex and voluptuous texture! A truly elegant red wine, best enjoyed in good company with poultry. A favorite of the Committee, rated 93/100. |
