Tasting Note

The remarkable stony and sunny soils of the vineyards are captured in this powerful and complex wine. It flourishes with age and expresses mineral aromas reminiscent of gunflint. The wine is full and flavoursome but with a firm backbone of acidity. The Côte de Lechet is one of the Premiers Crus of the Chablisian vineyard with the most exceptional ageing potential.

Product Notes

Domaine Bernard Defaix Chablis 1er Cru Côte de Lechet is an exquisite white wine that is sourced from the renowned Burgundy region of France. This wine is made entirely from Chardonnay grapes, and it exudes a fresh, mineral-rich character that is characteristic of the Chablis appellation. The nose is intense, with aromas of white peach, lemon zest, and wet stones. On the palate, this wine is crisp and refreshing, with flavors of ripe apples, citrus, and a hint of salinity. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of honey and flint. This is a wine that is perfectly suited for pairing with a variety of fish and seafood dishes, as well as some creamy cheeses.

About the Winery

Domaine Bernard Defaix

The history of Domaine Bernard Defaix begins with Bernard Defaix. Bernard belonged to the fourth generation of a vine growing family. In 1959, he started the venture for the winery with two hectares of land. At that time, the newly discovered technique of protecting the vineyards from spring frosts circulated throughout the wine industry. This system allowed the winery and other winegrowers to have a minimum harvest per year. The technique gradually allowed the trade markets to develop and attain stability.
