- A classic Rhone blend, this cuvee is characterized by floral hints and exotic fruits. The creamy, rich, and full-flavored palate shows enticing aromas of dried apricots and spicy, mineral notes balanced by a crisp, fresh finish.
Each grape variety was fermented separately in concrete vats at controlled temperatures of 18°C and lasted between 15 to 20 days. The different cuvees were blended together and the wine spent six months maturing in concrete vats.

| Winery | The Becassonne cuvée comes from a unique plot, particularly suited to the production of white wine. It is situated on a hill exposed to the gentle rising sun but protected from the strong setting sun by a pine forest, which allows the grapes to ripen fully and imparts a floral and exotic character to this wine, while preserving a real freshness. The soil is a clay earth on calcareous subsoil. The vines have an average age of 40 years and yield 40 hectolitres per hectare. The grapes are harvested manually, when they have reached the optimum maturity for the variety. |
