Fourth generation from a family of vine-growers, Bernard Defaix started with 2 ha in 1959. From this period, a method to protect the vineyard against spring frost was discovered. Thanks to this, the vine-growers could be sure to have a minimum of harvest every year and so they began to develop stable trade markets. The domain stretches over 27 hectares : Chablis Premier Cru (Côte de Lechet, Vaillons and Lys), Chablis and Petit Chablis.
This ” historical ” premier cru belonged to the Crown several centuries ago; which explains its name: Lys (the Lyli flower was the symbol of the monarchy in France). The premier cru Les Lys is situated between Chablis and Milly, near Les Vaillons. Planted by Bernard in the sixties, this plot used to be blended with the cuvée of Vaillons. We now vinify Les Lys separately.
This premier cru is characterized by its aromatic richness, and its fineness on the mouth. Fruity and rich, the wine can be appreciated alone or to accompany.
