Domaine Besson Givry 1er Cru 'Les Bois Gautiers' 2023

Alcohol: 13.5%

Grape(s): 100% Pinot Noir

Localization: Givry 1er Cru, Côte Chalonnaise, Burgundy, France

Tasting Notes: A beautifully concentrated Pinot Noir with aromas of bramble fruit and subtle floral undertones. The palate is silky and smooth, revealing layers of blackberry, cinnamon spice, and earthy tannins. A long, elegant finish rounds out this expressive Premier Cru.

Notes: This wine showcases the finesse of Givry’s terroir—ripe red and black fruits, a touch of spice, and a refined structure. Light oak aging adds depth without overpowering the fruit. Drink now or cellar for up to 5 years.

Food Pairing: Perfect with roasted game, duck breast, or a charcuterie board featuring saucisson sec and aged Comté. Also lovely alongside mushroom risotto or rabbit in mustard sauce.
