Bessa Valley | Buzdrinks

Terroir and climate

The soil and climate in its intricate interaction is the source of all exceptional wine. This is what led us to the Bessa Valley.

The terroir of Bessa Valley is mostly based on clay and limestone soils and the wines from these great clay-limestone soils supply power and structure, but also acidity and minerality.

Perfect climate for wine production with hot summers, mild winters, south exposition, and low level of rainfall. The rushing winds are offsetting the excess temperatures of the continental climate.

Winemaking

The barrel cellar with capacity up to 2 500 barrels is dug into the rock, which is of a great significance for the preservation and maturing of the wines. The rock allows the maintenance of a constant temperature and humidity of the air. The winery has its own bottling line with capacity of up to 800 000 bottles a year.

Currently the yield from the Valley is around 650 tons of grapes. About 720 000 bottles of wine. Only acacia sticks are used to support our vines.
