Domaine HUBERT LAMY Saint-Aubin 1er Cru "Derriere chez Edouard" 2019 - Magnum 1.5L (White)

Wine Region: Burgundy - France

Grape: Chardonnay

Tasting notes: "Aromas of fresh peach, pomelo and pear mingle with hints of smoke, wet stones and nutmeg, introducing Lamy's 2018 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Derrière Chez Edouard, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and concentrated wine that's layered and incisive, with tangy acids and chalky back-end grip." - William Kelley, The Wine Advocate

About the winery:
Hubert Lamy founded his estate in 1973, starting with one hectare of Saint-Aubin from his father and additional leased vineyards. Over the years, he expanded the estate to 14 hectares, with 10 being premier cru, primarily replanting with Chardonnay. Olivier, who joined in 1995, introduced innovations like high-density plantations and the Guyot Poussard training system. Despite early challenges, the Lamys achieved remarkable results, producing about 100,000 bottles annually from 20 appellations, emphasising meticulous hand-harvesting and organic cultivation.
