About this wine
Domaine Bernard Defaix 1er Cru Montmains Chablis
Domaine Bernard Defaix is a fourth-generation family estate with deep roots in the Chablis region. Their holdings in Montmains, one of the region's best-regarded Premier Cru sites, lie on Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soils and consistently produce wines of clarity and drive. The fruit is hand-harvested and fermented with native yeasts. A portion of the wine is aged in older oak barrels, while the rest is aged in stainless steel, striking a balance between structure and freshness.
Each vintage shows the signature Montmains profile: citrus peel, oyster shell, and green apple on the nose, followed by a palate that's taut, stony and long. There's no excess weight here, just a clear line from vineyard to glass. Bernard Defaix's Chablis has become a dependable name for those who seek Premier Cru quality without the complications. A wine to enjoy now or cellar for several years, particularly in stronger vintages. Serve it cool, alongside shellfish or roast chicken.

Expert Review
Allen Meadows
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 where the only nit is a touch of warmth.
