Producer Information

Daniel-Etienne Defaix owns one of the most ancient estate in Chablis (height centuries for the Vieux Château) Since 4 centuries, Defaix family are winemakers from father to son. The family estate is lodated on the most ancients terroirs from Chablis, where monks on Pontigny made a selection one thousand years ago to create the Chablis Appelation. Daniel-Etienne DEFAIX perpetuates the secular and familial tradition on these great monastic appellations. The works at the vines remains traditionnal because a clean and healthy vineyard gives a good quality of grapes and so of wines. The domain is 28 hectares, planted with Chardonnay on a typical soil called “kimmeridgien” (Jurassique supérieur, a marne argilo-calcaire with a lot of oysters fossilized inside). The privileged exposition of the monks of Pontigny was still hill with high slope exposed south-East. A benefit for Chablis, scared by the freezes of the spring, that takes the first sunshines and also avoid crop losses.
