Domaine Bernard Defaix Petit Chablis 2023

For years now, I’ve been using the Domaine Bernard Defaix Petit Chablis as my total ringer. It’s one of Burgundy’s greatest white wine values, and one of the last of its kind. Whether you’re a seasoned Chablis enthusiast or just beginning to explore French wines, it really is a must-try. It’s everything great Petit Chablis should be – beautiful stone fruits, and white flowers with juicy citrus notes, lively acidity, incredible tension and that piercing minerality that keeps you reaching for another sip.

Original price was: $30.00.Current price is: $22.00.

Bernard Defaix is now a fourth generation family-owned winery with a specialty in vine-growing. This has been a slow build for the family, starting with just two hectares and growing it to today’s number which sits just below 30 hectares.

With all that land under vine, the family is able to make some of the best wines in the subregion from Premier Cru Chablis, all the way down to highly affordable Petit Chablis – what we have here today. Without their own estate vines, Petit Chablis prices are going to be closer to this wine’s release price at $30/bottle. Not where we get to be!

Potentially for the last time ever at this incredible price, we were able to lock into an electrifying Petit Chablis that perfectly encapsulates what the best wines here have in common: beautiful stone fruit, white flowers, with juicy citrus notes, lively acidity and piercing minerality. Is this the last great under $20 white Burgundy? I sure hope not, but it’s a possibility!
