The spiciness and rounded texture mean that the wine is ready to drink

apricot and kiwi drive an abundance of ripeness

iron ore and crushed stone

Bright floral notes lift the red berry fruit beautifully

stony but ripe and luscious

2021 | Sébastien Besson Beaujolais La Criée Blanc | Beaujolais Modena The spiciness and rounded textureThe fruit is hand harvested and arrives to the cellar for an immediate pressing into a very cold tank. Natural fermentation begins in stainless steel and lasts for about one month with daily pump overs. The finished wine rested in tank for about seven months before a small (and first) dose of sulfites, no filtration nor fining, and then bottling. The result is a golden straw white with aromatics of apples, crisp but ripe pears, and stony minerality.
