On the palate, it is smooth and silky, with an elegant structure, balanced freshness and a lingering, refined finish.\n\nThe wine is approachable in its youth, where its supple texture and vibrant fruit are particularly appealing. It should also develop additional savoury and earthy nuances over the short to medium term when carefully cellared.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDomaine Besson farms around 10 hectares in and around Givry, allowing the character of individual terroirs to come through.
