The domaine's philosophy centres on expressing the pure terroir of their premier cru vineyards through minimal intervention winemaking. Their Cote de Lechet vineyard, positioned on the left bank of the River Serein, benefits from optimal south-facing exposure and the region's characteristic Kimmeridgian soils, rich in fossilised oyster shells that impart the distinctive mineral backbone Chablis is renowned for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2022 Vintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e The 2022 vintage in Chablis proved exceptional, with a warm, dry summer following a mild spring that encouraged healthy vine development. Despite challenging heat spikes in July, the cool nights preserved essential acidity whilst concentrating flavours. Harvest began in early September under ideal conditions, producing wines of remarkable balance with intense minerality and vibrant freshness that perfectly captures the essence of this premier cru site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVol:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75cl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eContains Sulphites\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WALKER \u0026 WODEHOUSE","offers":[{"title":"2022","offer_id":55476740915585,"sku":"45122","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"2023","offer_id":55577347490177,"sku":"47558","price":33.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0021\/0862\/0858\/files\/DOMAINEJEANDEFAIXCHABLISPREMIERCRU-COTEDELECHET2021.jpg?v=1739891224","url":"https:\/\/www.fineandwild.com\/products\/domaine-jean-defaix-chablis-1er-cru","provider":"FINE \u0026 WILD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
