White dry
A white Burgundy wine that perfectly reflects the mastery of the estate's current winemaker, Olivier Lamy (who took over the estate from his father Hubert), and his ability to convey the local terroir with maximum precision.
The aromas reveal notes of white peaches, lemon zest, and white flowers, harmoniously complemented by subtle brioche and light nutty nuances. On the palate, the wine reveals a medium body, firmly supported by the energetic, vibrant acidity characteristic of the producer's style, alongside a creamy, polished texture. The taste blends the freshness of citrus fruits, finishing with a long, pronounced salty and mineral aftertaste.
The wine is crafted from 'Chardonnay' grapes ripening in the "Les Frionnes" Premier Cru vineyard. This plot, situated on limestone and clay soil, allows for the formation of a clean, elegant, and deeply mineral wine profile. In accordance with Olivier Lamy's philosophy, only wild yeasts are used for fermentation, and the wine is aged in larger capacity oak barrels (demi-muids), thus avoiding excessive wood influence and preserving the authentic expression of the grapes.
Serve chilled to a temperature of 10–12 °C. This wine pairs well with seafood (especially oysters or scallops), white fish sautéed in butter, poultry with creamy sauces, and semi-soft cheeses.
Hubert Lamy is a young yet already highly regarded Burgundy winemaker based in Saint-Aubin, near Chassagne-Montrachet. Although his first wines appeared only recently, they immediately attracted the attention of sommeliers and collectors thanks to their precision, clarity of style, and sensitive expression of terroir. After studying in Beaune and gaining experience at several prestigious estates, Hubert chose to pursue his own vision. His wines convey the essence of Saint-Aubin and Chassagne, combining classical Burgundian aesthetics with a modern approach to winemaking.
Winemaking Philosophy
The vineyards are farmed using organic and biodynamic practices, without herbicides or synthetic fertilizers. The winemaker’s goal is not to shape the wine, but to allow it to express itself naturally.
Fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts, and oak is used very sparingly (around 15–25% new barrels). Aging typically lasts 12–18 months, allowing the wines to evolve naturally without additional filtration.
Wine Style
The Chardonnay wines are characterized by clear minerality, a delicate creamy texture, floral and citrus aromas, and finely integrated oak.
The Pinot Noir wines show an elegant aromatic profile with notes of red berries, subtle herbal nuances, and refined tannins. These wines have excellent aging potential while remaining approachable in their youth.
Prestigious Vineyards
The estate works with several high-quality vineyard sites in Saint-Aubin, Chassagne-Montrachet, and Puligny-Montrachet, including:
– Saint-Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly – a high-altitude vineyard with a style close to Chassagne
– Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chaumées – offering greater structure and longevity
– Puligny-Montrachet Les Trezin – known for elegance, floral character, and minerality
– Bourgogne Blanc Les Charmes – an excellent expression of the estate’s house style
Aging and Drinking Window
Hubert Lamy wines are known for their harmonious balance between accessibility and longevity. They are enjoyable when young but gain complexity and depth over 5–10 years. The Premier Cru wines, particularly En Remilly and Les Chaumées, display outstanding aging potential while maintaining vibrant acidity and the refined, classic character of Burgundy.
