Domaine HUBERT LAMY Saint-Aubin 1er Cru "Derriere chez Edouard" 2023 (Red)Wine Region: Burgundy France Grape: Pinot Noir Tasting notes: "The 2018 Saint Aubin 1er Cru Derrire Chez Edouard Rouge is showing beautifully, unfurling in the glass with aromas of cassis, wild berries, bergamot and rose petals. On the plate, it's medium to full bodied, precise and mineral, with excellent concentration and a finer boned profile than Lamy's heartier reds from Santenay and Chassagne Montrachet."

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.
