2018 Defaix Freres Bourgogne Chardonnay Burgundy

Situated between the Côte de Beaune and the Mâconnais, the Côte Chalonnaise benefits from varied limestone soils and a continental climate, which contribute to its distinctive wine profile. 

Defaix Frères, a family-run domaine established in 1955, is located in this esteemed region. Initially focusing on Chablis, the estate has since expanded to include key sites in Rully. Managed by Hélène Jaeger-Defaix and her husband Didier, the estate represents the fourth generation of the Defaix family in viticulture. Known for their commitment to organic and sustainable practices, Defaix Frères achieved full organic certification in 2019. The winemaking approach is characterized by minimal intervention, using natural yeasts and traditional methods to emphasize the authenticity of their wines.

2018 was a great vintage for this region. Wine Spectator blessed this year with a 92 point review and said it delivered "Opulent and open whites."

100% Chardonnay. This Bourgogne Blanc offers a delightful balance of delicate aromas and crisp acidity, making it a true pleasure wine. It pairs perfectly with roasted chicken, grilled fish, fresh salads, or creamy cheeses. A refreshing and versatile choice, it embodies the charm of Burgundy.
