Why it's on our shelf

Defaix grows Pinot Noir on vines planted in 1900 — original rootstocks, never replaced. Producing a red wine in Chablis is almost unheard of; Daniel-Etienne says this may be the only one of its kind. The limestone and iron soils give a tartness that pushes against the very ripe red fruit, producing something that doesn't resemble other Bourgogne Rouge. A conversation piece that delivers beyond the conversation.
