The vibrant and delicious, if not especially dense, flavors terminate in a clean, dry and slightly austere finale. To enjoy young.

The Bourgogne vines are tucked away at the end of the valley, so were picked later, on 5th September, finishing at 13.2%. A clear pale colour. The bouquet offers an immediate intensity with a crystalline character, a very pure white fruit in the mouth, concentrated apples, highly impressive for a ‘regional’ wine. Drink from 2025-2030. Tasted Nov 2024. Drinking range: 2025 - 2030 Rating: **** Jasper Morris - Inside Burgundy (Nov 2024)
The 2022 Bourgogne Les Chataigners, from the top of the incline on chalky soils, has a pretty nose with lemon verbena and light Anjou pear scents. The palate is fresh on the entry, quite spicy and lively, with a twist of sour lemon on the finish. It's simple, but delicious.

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.
