Chablis, Burgundy, France
Daniel-Etienne Defaix
Defaix is a family domaine in Chablis that deliberately holds its wines back before release, so this bottle has already had extra time in their cellar. The 'old vines' designation means the grapes come from their oldest plots, giving the wine more depth for the price than most Chablis.
