White dry
One of the most refined Saint-Aubin 1er Cru expressions, showcasing winemaker Humbert Lamy’s ability to distill the essence of Burgundian white wine. This wine brings together elegance and mineral precision, crafted from ‘Chardonnay’ grown in the distinctive Saint-Aubin “Les Frionnes” vineyard.
On the nose, aromas of white peach, lemon zest, brioche, and white flowers unfold, complemented by a subtle nutty texture. On the palate, the wine shows a medium body, vibrant acidity, a creamy yet precise texture, and a long, elegant finish. Flavors combine freshness, salinity, and citrus-driven tension.
The “Les Frionnes” parcel is located in the southern part of the Saint-Aubin appellation, at the foot of the slope, on limestone and clay soils with stone fragments. These conditions allow the Chardonnay grapes to ripen while preserving a clean aromatic profile and a subtle expression of terroir.
This wine offers an excellent balance between fruit and minerality. While vibrant and expressive in its youth, it also possesses aging potential, allowing it to gain further depth and complexity over time.
Serve at 10–12 °C with butter-fried cod and fresh herb sauce, chicken suprême with white wine and cream sauce, or mature Comté cheese.
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.
