Bessa Valley

The Valley rested for decades. It was gathering strength and giving it now to the light green vines. It is different now. The only reminder of the years is the tree in the middle of the massif. This is the plant with the deepest roots here, the bridge between the past and the present.

In July the vine-growers take a look at each vine, cut off some of the still green grapes and lay them on the ground. The vine must bear a kilogram of fruit.
Only one kilogram, only 450 grapes. Each grape must be perfect.

When they reach a perfect ripeness, the grapes are cut off the vine, each grape separated one by one and put in the fermentation vessels. They are not crushed or forced in any way. Shortly after, each grape will burst under its weight and release a few drops of fragrant juice. This juice will become Enira.
