Bernard Defaix, Chablis Grand Cru Bougros, 2023

This grand cru is situated on the west/south-west extremity of the seven grands crus of Chablis. Our cuvee of Bougros comes from a vine located on the top of the slope, so the exposure to the sun is excellent. The wine is fermented and aged in oak barrels with regular "batonnage". The coolness of the cellar exempts us from a cold stabilisation process: the precipitation of tartar crystals takes place naturally during winter. Then the wine is bottled with a light filtration after 18 months ageing.
