Domaine Hubert Lamy, Santenay Rouge, Clos Les Hâtes, Burgundy, France, 2021

Producer Profile
Olivier Lamy is one of the brightest stars in the Côte de Beaune, following in the footsteps of his father Hubert Lamy when he joined the family domaine in 1995.
Sadly, Hubert passed away in October 2022 and will be sorely missed. The fine quality of his wines has significantly enhanced the standing of Saint Aubin, which can now be mentioned in the same breath as the more celebrated neighbouring appellations of Chassagne-Montrachet and Puligny-Montrachet. His signature racy styling, with great acidity and length, remains to the fore and his wines always punch well above their weight. They age well, too, due to their fine balance. The reds offer deep, ripe yet well-manicured tannins with good bright, fresh red fruit character alongside.
Viticulture
This vineyard is bordered by the 1er cru Passetemps, soils are deep clay with a limestone topsoil.
Winemaking
Fermentation occurs in tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation in barrels. The wine is then aged for about 18 to 24 months before bottling. This process results in a wine with vibrant fruit flavours and balanced acidity.
Tasting Note
This clearly expressed Pinot Noir reveals red berry fruit complemented by a subtle smoky graphite aromas. It’s precise, mineral-driven, and well-defined.
