Defaix ages his wine for 10 years in his cellar before releasing them, the wines never see any oak, and are sealed with top level cork purchased years in advance. The magic of Daniel-Etienne Defaix’s unique approach in the cellar is its ability to perfectly preserve a vintage’s youthful energy and vitality across decade of aging.
The Vaillon is a top 5 1er cru, but Defaix’s is a true insider wine. Their vines are a part of “la Vaillon”, THE best part of the vineyard, the same as La Fourchaume within Fourchaume. This wine has incredible richness and density, all wrapped up in the same entrancing minerality. Considering the age, prime real estate, and unrivaled value, this is unquestionably among the best Burgundy investments one could ever hope to make.
