Vinous Tasting Note

The 2022 Saint-Aubin Les Frionnes 1er Cru comes from Kimmeridgian soils. This feels focused and mineral-driven on the nose, similar to the Les Murgers des Dents de Chien. There are fleeting touches of oyster shell and fruits de mer blossoming in the glass. The palate is very well balanced, fresh and taut, with a killer line of acidity. The initial roundness dovetails into a stricter and more linear finish. This is superb.

About the Producer

About the Producer

Domaine Hubert Lamy, a jewel of Saint-Aubin in Burgundy, has established itself as one of the benchmarks of the Côte de Beaune. Although its origins date back to the 1970s, it was from the 1990s onwards that the estate truly took flight, thanks to a policy of qualitative acquisition and replanting of Chardonnay. Today, Olivier Lamy embodies the soul of the estate, perpetuating the family legacy with an innovative approach. The estate spans some twenty hectares and produces wines sought after for their elegance, depth, and ability to reflect the typicity of their terroirs. Hubert Lamy's wines are distinguished by their expressive purity and minerality, particularly in cuvées such as the Saint-Aubin Premier Cru Derrière Chez Édouard "Haute Densité," a signature of the estate. One also finds beautiful expressions in the Saint-Aubin Premier Cru Clos de la Chatenière and En Remilly, as well as in Chassagne-Montrachet with a plot of old vines in La Goujonne. The rare Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru "Haute Densité" represents the pinnacle of the range, a wine of great finesse. Among the most closely followed cuvées are Domaine Hubert Lamy En Remilly, Domaine Hubert Lamy Derriere Chez Edouard 'Haute Densite', and Domaine Hubert Lamy Criots-Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru 'Haute Densite'—useful reference points for understanding the identity of the house.
