Bernard and Monique Defaix began with 2 hectares in 1959 and today with a lot of hard work the estate owns 27 hectares in Chablis and 6 hectares in Rully (Cote de Chalonnaise). The domaine was certified organic in 2009 (Ecocert). The maintenance of the soils is made by ploughing exclusively. They also use various preparations for a biodynamic approach.
