Bernard Defaix, with his two sons Sylvain and Didier, runs his own company following the traditions of family handed down from four generations of winemakers. The Domaine covers 25 hectares, including 11 Premier Crus (Côte de Lechet, Les Vaillons and Les Lys), 12 ha of Chablis and 2 ha of Petit Chablis. Defaix is considered one of the best producers on the left bank of the Serein River, an area that reserves wonderful surprises above all in the hottest vintages. Only a few Defaix wines ferment and are aged in wood (Chablis Vieille Vigne and Chablis premier cru Cô ; te de Lechet Reserve). In other cases, the barriques are used with great caution, in order to preserve the typical nature of the various appellations. In the winemaking phase, a fundamental role is played by aging on the lees (with a stay of 8 to 12 months) with batonnage or pumping over without contact with air, which makes it possible to obtain rounder and more structured wines, while protecting them from oxidative trends.
