Tasting notes

Intense and precise on the nose, offering green apple, white peach, and fresh lemon zest layered with signature Chablis minerality, wet stone, chalk, and a flinty, almost smoky edge. The palate is tightly wound with vibrant acidity, medium-full body, and flavors of citrus pith, oyster shell, and subtle toasted brioche from oak aging. The finish is long, saline, and crystalline, with remarkable tension and depth.

About this wine

Domaine Besson crafts some of Chablis' most refined expressions of unoaked Chardonnay, capturing the mineral essence of Burgundy's northernmost white wine region. Les Clos, a Grand Cru vineyard, represents the pinnacle of the appellation, a south-facing slope with limestone-rich clay soils that impart elegant salinity and crystalline precision to every vintage. This white wine embodies the classical Chablis style: pure, food-friendly, and built for refinement rather than extraction.

At 13% ABV, Les Clos balances concentration with freshness, making it an exemplary choice for fine dining tables and discerning cellars. The wine pairs beautifully with shellfish, oily fish, and pork preparations, while its mineral profile complements creamy cheeses like Brie. Domaine Besson's commitment to terroir-driven winemaking ensures each bottle reflects the distinctive character of this prestigious Grand Cru site.
