Chablis Vieilles Vignes, Domaine Daniel-Etienne Defaix, Burgundy, France 2018

Chablis, France

DEFAIXCHABLIVV18

Tasting Notes

The richness almost insolent of this Chablis makes it an ideal wine for aperitif, an excellent companion of fish pâtés, oysters and plates of seafood. This Chablis can flirt with a roasted andouillette or snails of Burgundy with Chablis and butter persillade.Left on the lees and stirred for 12 months. Bottled under nitrogen without fining or filtration. Left in bottle for between six and twelve months before release. During this time a monthly bâttonage takes place to keep the wines in contact with the lees, without the addition of sulphur, making use of the natural CO2 from the malolactice fermentation. The wines are bottled under nitrogen without fining and filtration.
