Domaine Les Lys

Daniel-Etienne Defaix

Les Lys Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2010

“Les Lys” is one of the eight climats within Vaillons but it’s peculiar in terms of its exposure and the soil contains a bit more clay. The wines are equally unique expressions and typically long lived. This bottle is no exception.

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a hour. The 2010 “Les Lys” pours a bright yellow color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with explosive notes of tart and ripe orchard and tropical fruits: green apple, starfruit, passion fruit; a mixed bag of citrus with lemon, lime and even some tangerine. There’s white flowers, a whiff of brioche and racy minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. It has been a few years since I last had the 2010 and it’s no less stunning. Drink now through 2035+

Château Pradeaux

Les Lys Bandol Red Rhone Blend 2022

Light red in color with medium intensity.

Fruity nose and medium in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing red fruits with earth, light wood, spices and coffee notes.

Tangy finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.

Still young and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.

Drinking nicely now with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel.

Good by itself, and a good food wine.

A blend of 85% Mourvèdre and 15% Cinsault. Aged in large oak barrels for 18 months.

14% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

Cuvée des Lys Tavel Rosé Blend

Wonderful combination of bright fruit and structure. People sometimes forget that rosés are red wines, but this wine was a wonderful partner for a roast lamb and eggplant dish. Have this wine with food, and enjoy! — 2 years ago
