WINE DESCRIPTION

Bernard Defaix Chablis is a high-quality white wine produced by the renowned Bernard Defaix winery in the Chablis appellation of Burgundy, France. The vineyards are located on the famous Kimmeridgian limestone soils, which give the wine its unique minerality and complexity. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging on the lees to enhance the wine's texture and flavor. The resulting wine is crisp, refreshing, and elegant, with notes of citrus, green apple, and a subtle hint of flint. Bernard Defaix Chablis is a perfect match for seafood, shellfish, and other light dishes.
