“A roundness and comfort to this yellow citrus nose. Scale and energy – there’s a chalky style to this wine too. A little mineral – impressive for the vintage – I love this finish, faintly strict at the end – and long for the label. I love it!” Bill Nanson, Burgundy Report

Screwcap. Unusually for a Petit Chablis, the lion’s share of this cuvée is drawn from a parcel of Kimmeridgian-based soil. Well-situated on the slopes above Milly and Vaillons, it is a cool site that comes into its own in warmer vintages. Defaix has recently added two small parcels in Poinchy and Beines, which bring depth and complexity.
