Good ripe nose, attractively sunny style, with density and minerality too. A fresh almond core, good aromatic definition, and a fine, fresh finish. Drinking range: 2016 - L&S (Nov 2015)

(bottled in late April): Musky aromas of lime and quinine reminded me of an Alsace Riesling. Then surprisingly creamy and pliant in the mouth, with peach and citrus flavors spreading out to saturate the palate. Very seamless, silky wine: Lamy notes that the clay soil gives it roundness and fullness. Tightens up on the finish but not at all hard.

Distinctly greenish straw. Crystal clear. Some sweetness of fruit and creaminess on the nose but, unusually, struck match on the finish. Lots tucked in here. Textbook stuff. Drinking range: 2017 - 2026 Rating: 17.5+ Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Jan 2016)

In the soil sample in Olivier’s excellent collect of soil strata you can see the white marn with its high calcareous level – under the top soil. There is a fracture, so you get this beneath and this gives the freshness and minerality. This is very elegant; pure and silky. It is much more fluidly elegant on the palate than the Chassagne. Floral notes.. It glides. It has grace. The finish is floral and lifted with a note of white chalk at the end. Top notch village wine.

Domaine Hubert Lamy

Olivier Lamy has built on the solid foundations his father Hubert prepared with twenty years and more of work in the vineyards. Today the Domaine has 18.5 hectares of vines - 80% are Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir. The vines are in several appellations - Saint-Aubin, Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet and Santenay, as well as the excellent Bourgogne Blanc. The reputation of the domaine is now made, but the Saint Aubins, both red and white, remain some of the bargains of Côte d'Or, and challenge the supposed superiority of the grander village names on a regular basis, both in terms of young and mature wines.

Olivier's wine-making style and preference is to emphasise the fresh and the mineral side of his wines, and there is very little new wood in this cellar, with many wines with no new wood at all, and that is with the wines in 600 litre demi-muids rather that the classic Burgundy (225 litre) fût. Certainly Oliver's whites do have an arrow-like purity and intensity, and seem to age completely straight and true.

The reds are worth more than a casual mention too. Olivier has been getting some consultation help from Sylvain Pataille, and the wines have energy and bounce along with the supple tannins and ripeness.
