Domaine Hubert Lamy Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Derrière Chez Édouard – Saint-Aubin Premier Cru – White – 2021:
The Chiseled Precision of Hubert Lamy’s Premier Cru
The Domaine Hubert Lamy Saint-Aubin 1er Cru ‘Derrière Chez Édouard’ is a cult-status white Burgundy, celebrated for its intense focus and mineral energy. Sourced from Olivier Lamy’s pioneering High Density plots, this Chardonnay achieves a concentration and complexity that challenges its more famous neighbors in Puligny-Montrachet.
Tasting Notes
- Color: Brilliant pale gold with a subtle green tint.
- Nose: Layered and vibrant. It opens with piercing aromas of fresh citrus (lime oil), green apple, and white flowers, evolving into notes of toasted hazelnut and wet stone minerality.
- Palate: The palate is laser-focused and chiseled. A racy, electric acidity provides a powerful backbone, supporting a surprisingly rich, yet elegant, texture. It is remarkably concentrated, finishing with immense length and a precise, chalky persistence. This wine demands cellar time.
Pairing & Service
This Premier Cru is built for fine dining. Serve chilled (54-57°F / 12-14°C). Decanting is highly recommended in its youth to soften its mineral edge and reveal its full aromatic depth.
