"Daniel-Étienne Defaix is a fourth-century family Chablis producer who ages his wines for years longer than almost anyone else in Burgundy. His wines arrive with the complexity of a well-cellared bottle but the freshness and precision that make Chablis famous." The Daniel-Etienne Defaix Chablis "Vieilles Vignes" 2022 is one of the best village-level Chablis on the market. While many producers release their basic Chablis after less than a year, Daniel-Etienne Defaix ages this wine for 30 months before release, giving it a depth and complexity that's unusual for a village Chablis.
