Wine Description:
Benoît Ente is among the smallest wineries in France, enriching the list of top wine producers established in the Burgundy wine region. Situated in the renowned Côte de Beaune region, named after the town of Beaune, known as the "wine hub of Bourgogne," the Benoît Ente estate is dominated by vineyards featuring Chardonnay, Aligoté, and Pinot Noir grapes. From these, world-renowned Burgundy wines are crafted, known for their exceptional quality and considered some of the most precious drops globally. Over centuries, the Burgundy wine region has consistently produced arguably the finest wines in France, celebrated for their distinctive quality. While red Burgundy, made not only from Pinot Noir but also the Gamay grape, remains a flagship of the region, the flavors of white Burgundy wines, expressing the characteristics of exquisite Chardonnay grapes, can equally captivate wine enthusiasts today.

These aromas are beautifully integrated and give a sense of freshness and purity. The palate of this wine is equally impressive.
