2019 Hubert Lamy Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Derriere Chez Edouard Vieilles Vignes #164168949
Wine Advocate
Reviews 92 points Wine Advocate "Offering up aromas of dark berries, exotic spices, orange rind and loamy soil, Lamy's 2019 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Derriere Chez Edouard Rouge is medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a velvety attack that segues into a youthfully firm, chalky finish. (WK)" 91 points Vinous "...a very focused bouquet of brambly red fruit, light loamy scents, damp autumn earth and powdered chalk, all delivered with fine delineation. The medium-bodied palate offers black currant and raspberry fruit, slightly chalky tannins and a bitter cherry finish that gets the saliva flowing. (NM)"

About Hubert Lamy
The vineyards, spread across Saint-Aubin, Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet, and Santenay, thrive under Olivier’s astute attention to detail. A proponent of high-density planting, Olivier ensures that the vines compete for nutrients, leading to concentrated, expressive fruit. His innovative approach also includes using large oak barrels for fermentation and aging, which imbues the wines with a nuanced oak character without overwhelming the fruit.
Another remarkable feature of Domaine Hubert Lamy’s winemaking is the extended aging. Olivier has notably reduced the amount of oak and sulfur used, while increasing the aging period. This gentle, prolonged élevage, lasting over two winters in barrels, imparts the wines with exceptional finesse, stability, and aging potential. His dedication to achieving the perfect balance has shifted the style from a generous oak-infused profile to a more restrained, austere, and mineral-driven character, reminiscent of Chablis, as acknowledged by Olivier himself.
Renowned critic William Kelley of The Wine Advocate lavished praise on Domaine Hubert Lamy, stating, "Sometimes I contemplate what I think might be the easiest way to make enemies in Burgundy: A Michelin Guide-style ranking, out of three stars, of the region's best domaines. Olivier Lamy would be one of three white wine producers in the Côte de Beaune to whom I would unquestionably award three stars." This ringing endorsement reflects the exceptional quality and character of the wines produced under Olivier Lamy's watchful eye.
With limited production and ever-growing demand, Domaine Hubert Lamy’s wines are a treasure for connoisseurs seeking the quintessence of Burgundy’s terroir. Olivier Lamy’s relentless pursuit of perfection has unequivocally positioned Domaine Hubert Lamy among the shining stars of Burgundy.
