AboutDomaine Julien Besse
Julien Besse established his domaine in 2010 in the Mâconnais village of Péronne. The estate covers sixteen hectares, with Chardonnay leading its range of Mâcon wines.
Permanent grass between the rows and shallow soil cultivation are used to help limit erosion. Besse uses green manures to support the soil and is studying agroforestry with the aim of planting trees among the vines.
