“Discreet wood frames pretty and elegant aromas that include those of essence of pear, white flowers and moderate Chablis typicity. The generous and seductively textured medium weight flavors possess a sappy mouthfeel while displaying fine length on the markedly saline finish…” 90-92 points, Allen Meadows, Burghound

Diam. On the opposite flank of the Valvan Valley to Les Vaillons, and with a deep soil of bleu d'argile (blue clay) yet still with plenty of limestone, Montmains is commonly cited as producing 'textbook' Chablis of minerality and verve. Defaix’s wine is sourced from a sub-plot of 35-year-old vines in a cool terroir close to the Serein River—a site that lends this wine its mineral backbone.
