first tasted this wine in May 2016 at Chèvre d’Or in Eze. Blew me away. Was my first 2014 Chablis. Touted it long and hard to others. Bought lots of it and other 14s. Happy tonight that I did. Still fairly unevolved and not much different from the taste in 2016, it’s tight w iodine and minerals, lean but lithe, super citrus fruits and zest. Really screams Chablis. — 4 hours ago

bought at the domaine a couple decades ago and lovingly stored in low 50s, bottle was defective. Not TCA, but a chemical something. Didn’t blow off and couldn’t drink. Sad. — 6 days ago

for $45, these 05 and 06 recent release Defaix wines scream value. There are several and all are worth owning. — 2 days ago

opened w high hopes after a stunning 66 Corton a few weeks back, wine was sound but no thrills. Tertiary with mushrooms and classic sous bois, no Vosne spice, very little fruit. Didn’t change much in glass. Not a great wine. Too tertiary, expected to see mushrooms in the glass. — 6 days ago
