Description

The vines have an average age of 35 years and the vineyards are cultivated with great care with only a minimum of chemical treatments are applied. The Besson’s follow ‘lutte raisonnée’ in the vineyards and harvest the Grand Crus manually. The wines are fermented in temperature-controlled vats and then Besson uses a small percentage of oak for some cuvées, just to impart a touch of roundness to the finished wines. 100% stainless steel.

Tasting note

Pale yellow with golden tints. Complex and fruity with flavors of yellow fruits and citrus. Roundness, powerful expression floral and fruity notes.
