| Notes | "Besson is a great, small domaine that lies at the base of the Givry Premiers Crus Petit and Grand Pretan. Low yields, late harvest and 1/3 new oak with only one racking before bottling are the hallmarks of their intense reds. The wine is a classic cherry red, with a bouquet that ranges from fresh cherries and raspberries to dried strawberries and very subtle hints of vanilla. On the palate, it is silky with a pleasing weight and richness, offering layers of red and black fruit balanced by savory minerals." (Winemaker's Notes) Importer: Ideal Wine Spirits | |||
