WINE DESCRIPTION
Besson Petit Chablis is a white wine produced in the Petit Chablis appellation in Burgundy, France. Petit Chablis is grown in the wider Chablis area in vineyards that recieve less sun exposure, and on soils that lack the limestone and mineral fossil content of Chablis vineyards. The end result is crisp, lemon fruited wines with vibrant acidity and a light body. Whilst they may lack the mineral complexity of Chablis, they share the vibrant acidity and refreshing style. Besson Petit Chablis is a perfect choice for those seeking a refreshing and elegant white wine experience.
