Sebastien Besson Chenas 2019 750ml

$34.95

EXPERT NOTES 


The deep-hued juice in the glass yields a robustly pretty nose of red berries and flowers. On the palate, the wine exhibits a well-structured, yet crunchy freshness that delights the senses. The length and finesse in this wine are absolutely delicious, with ample acidity, bright fruit, floral hints, and mineral undertones. Overall, a delightful and well-crafted expression of Gamay that is sure to impress any wine lover.


WINEMAKER’S TASTING NOTES 


The Chenas is a prime example of bush vine Gamay, grown in the intense granite soils of the Cru. The grapes are hand-harvested when they reach their ideal balance between sugar and acidity, and then brought to the cellar in Lancié where natural fermentation takes place in both stainless and cement vessels with whole clusters.

TASTE WINE

Look, Smell, Taste and Conclude

VISUAL

You can tell the age of the wine by the color in the glass, also if you look at the legs of the wine you can determine quality aspects

SMELL

When you first start smelling wine, think big to small. Are there fruits? Think of broad categories first, i.e. citrus, orchard, or tropical fruits in whites or, when tasting reds, red fruits, blue fruits, or black fruits. Getting too specific or looking for one particular note can lead to frustration

The Grape

The grape variety is very important to understand a wine.
Grape varieties are considered the most important factor in differentiating a wine

IN YOUR TONGUE

You will be able to perceive that the flavor runs throughout the mouth. You will notice how it runs along the sides, which indicates that it is a quality wine due to its structure.
