Bernard Defaix started with just 2ha in 1959, with sons Sylvain and Didier now running operations. The domaine now extends over 27ha, with 8ha in Côte de Léchet. With slopes up to 38 degrees, exposure to the sun is a feature here, along with the pebbly soils. A tank sample, this has richness and warmth to it, with some oak character and leesy notes from extended ageing. Good freshness to finish. Drinking Window 2022 - 2027.
