Château la Bessane 2008 Red (Margaux)
- Online Exclusive
- $37
Potentially an aromatic wine that will develop a rich, velvety character. At this young stage, the fruit is dominated by firm tannins that sit at the heart of the wine. It has all the density for a good development, aging over 5–10 years.

Château la Bessane 2006 Red (Margaux)
- Online Exclusive
- $32
This intriguing wine is dominated by the 60% of normally rare Petit Verdot. Made by the same team as Château Paloumey, this wine shows an impressive color, and a rich, black berry juicy character. The tannins are solid, but the exuberant fruit overrides everything else.

Château la Bessane 2001 Red (Margaux)
Under the same ownership as Château La Paloumey in the Haut-Médoc, this is rich, with well-integrated flavors of blackberry and figs. There are fruit tannins that lie easily over the wood and the acidity.

Château la Bessane 2007 Red (Margaux)
- $32
Tight and tannic, this is a wine with as much structure as fruit. It has a dusty, austere quality, the fruit a light layer underneath. The high proportion of Petit Verdot in the blend gives color as well as those tannins.
