Description
There is a dearth of Millennium Chablis because "2000 was one of the best ever Chablis vintages" (The Times). This triumph of strikingly pure fruit and mineral complexity is from the famed Premier Cru vineyard of Vaillons and the brilliant Daniel Defaix "one of the best producers" (The Independent).

The highly acclaimed Defaix family have been producing wines since the 16th century! Theirs is one of the oldest family-run estates in Chablis with vineyards in many of the region's greatest Crus.

After eight years of gorgeous honeyed age, this Premier Cru Chablis is thrillingly crisp with elegant, mature complexity. The Sunday Times reckon that "there's never been a better time to stock up on 2000's excellent Chablis" - act quickly to secure your share!

Luxuriously golden in colour with luscious stone fruit flavours. Rich and creamy but still fabulously fresh with a classic minerality. Delicious with goats cheese, scallops or creamy mushroom dishes.
