Domaine Besson’s Givry 1er Cru 'Le Petit Prétan' 2021 is a refined expression from the Burgundy region of France. Sourced from the esteemed Le Petit Prétan vineyard, this Pinot Noir benefits from the region’s limestone and clay soils, coupled with a continental climate that shapes the wine’s distinct character. The vineyard’s terroir and Domaine Besson’s traditional techniques, including French oak barrel aging, add structure and finesse to this exceptional cuvée.
The wine offers vibrant aromas and flavors of ripe red fruits like cherry and raspberry, balanced with subtle earthiness and a delicate touch of spice. Medium-bodied with smooth tannins, its complexity and elegance reflect the heritage of both the estate and Burgundy’s premier cru traditions. French oak imparts a soft, nuanced finish, giving it added layers of depth and sophistication.
Best enjoyed slightly chilled, this wine pairs beautifully with roasted poultry, grilled vegetables, or soft, mild cheeses. Its smooth profile and vibrant acidity also make it ideal for savoring on its own, revealing more nuance with every sip.
