As usual, there's only one barrel of the 2022 Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru Haute Densité, a glorious wine that will richly reward anyone able to attain a bottle—and to exercise the patience required to enjoy it at its best. Unwinding in the glass with notes of sweet orchard fruit, orange oil, oyster shell, freshly baked bread and wheat toast, it's full-bodied, satiny and layered, with a deep and multidimensional core of fruit, racy acids and a long, chalky finish. It's the king of the cellar, but it's also the most reserved wine in the range and really needs some time to show all its cards.Inc. VAT£3,706.79 -

(still in barrel, unracked, with very low sulfur): Aromas of citrus fruits, licorice, menthol and spices. Seriously deep yet delineated village wine with a strong spice character despite the fact that there's no new oak here. Supple, pliant and vibrant but with its brisk fruit a bit suppressed. Finishes with a faint dry edge that may be due to a recent copper treatment. Should make a stunning village wine.Inc. VAT£5,767.94 -

The 2020 Puligny-Montrachet Les Tremblots Haut Densité has a fresh apple blossom, white tea and light chalky scents that gains intensity with aeration. The palate is very focused, with fine delineation and mineralité. It is tightly-wound towards the finish with a twist of bitter lemon lingering on the aftertaste.Inc. VAT£1,153.13 -
Vinous - Neal Martin (91)
Part of the production of the 2017 Puligny-Montrachet Les Tremblots has been late released onto the market. Sea spray and light lemon rind notes unfold on the nose, later joined by a touch of green apple. The palate is fresh and well balanced with a tangy entry, fine depth and focus with a bitter lemon hint mixed with chamomile toward the finish. This is excellent.Inc. VAT£257.99 -

5 Star Wine. Clear bright colour, the nose is hyper-concentrated, a wealth of dense white fruit, which doesn’t speak so much of Puligny but this is a great wine. The concentration from the high density planting screams out loud at the back of the palate. Very long, and ultra-fine.Inc. VAT£1,582.60 -

The 2022 Puligny-Montrachet Les Tremblots includes the younger vines in the high-density section of the vineyard. It has a crisp, well-defined nose with petrichor and oyster shell scents, the latter becoming stronger with aeration. The palate is well balanced and mineral-driven, with that oyster shell element defining the finish. This is excellent.Inc. VAT£651.49 -

Vinous (89-92)
Pale lemon-yellow color. Slightly reduced, leesy scents of lemon, spices and musky flowers. Dense, ripe and juicy, conveying terrific cut and minerality to its flavors of lemon, orange oil and spices. Doesn't have quite the depth of a great vintage but finishes tactile and chewy, with strong minerality.Inc. VAT£107.99 -

The 2017 Saint-Aubin Derrière Chez Edouard 1er Cru has a "cool" nose with cold granite mixed with undergrowth, moss-like scents with a touch of menthol. It is very intense on the palate, one of Lamy's spicier 2017s with a tang of ginger and lemon thyme on the finish. Excellent.Inc. VAT£1,046.29 -

The 2019 Saint-Aubin Derrière Chez Edouard 1er Cru conveys a sense of airiness and "space" on the beautifully defined nose of Granny Smith apples and freshly sliced pear mixed with wet rock.

The 2020 Saint-Aubin Derrière Chez Edouard 1er Cru has a straight down the line limestone-scented bouquet with a touch of shucked oyster shells.

Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2012 tasting in Beaune. The 2012 St Aubin 1er Cru Clos de la Chatenière from Hubert Lamy is showing some reduction on the nose, though rigorous swirling reveals subtle walnut and candle wax scents complementing the citrus fruit. You need to give it some bottle age to remedy that reduction though. The palate is well balanced with a sharp, citric, quite tangy entry. Dried orange peel and walnut come through towards the finish that feels a little clipped, but otherwise this is a sophisticated Saint Aubin that simply insists on some bottle age.Inc. VAT£193.73 -

Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting, the 2014 St Aubin 1er Cru Clos de la Chateniere from Domaine Hubert & Olivier Lamy was not as clean on the nose as its peers, slightly cheesy at first and then light mothball scents. The palate is fresh on the entry with a pretty kiwi fruit and Cornice pear opening; but it never achieves the same level of tension and focus as other premier crus from the appellation, and it seems to drift on the finish. This may well be entering a dumb phase, and it may well re-find the promise it demonstrated from barrel, hence my plus sign.Inc. VAT£203.99 -

The 2015 Saint-Aubin Clos de la Chatenière 1er Cru has a crisp, earthy, almost zen bouquet that is more like a 2014 than a 2015. I appreciate the terroir expression here - you can sense the wine’s birthplace coming through with aeration. The nuanced palate is very well balanced and precise in style, displaying a fine bead of acidity and a gorgeous, lightly spiced, edgy, sappy finish that urges you back for another sip. Outstanding for the vintage. Highly recommended. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. (DIAM 10 closure)Inc. VAT£203.99 -

The 2017 Saint-Aubin Clos de la Chatenière 1er Cru has an intriguing undergrowth and bell pepper-scented nose. There is a fine line of acidity on the palate, very tensile and focused on the saline finish, residual hints of stem ginger lingering on the aftertaste. Excellent.Inc. VAT£164.52 -

The 2018 Saint-Aubin Clos de Chatenière 1er Cru has exquisite delineation on the nose: wonderful focus and palpable sense of energy and tension. The terroir floods through here. The palate is very well balanced, with razor-sharp acidity, just a mote of reduction. Very good weight with a mineral driven finish that has wonderful sapidity. This is an extremely classy Saint-Aubin. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 white tasting.Inc. VAT£148.13 -

The 2019 Saint-Aubin Clos de la Chatenière 1er Cru expresses its terroir exquisitely on the nose, displaying wonderful mineralité and precision. The palate is well balanced, with a silver bead of acidity, and tensile from start to finish, yet expanding right at the end with mouthwatering sappiness. I remember this being impressive out of barrel last year, and now in bottle, Lamy has successful translated all that potential. Closure: DiamInc. VAT£164.39 -

The 2020 Saint-Aubin Clos de la Chatenière 1er Cru comes from steep limestone slopes and shows quite a bit of Coche reduction at the moment. But one can tell there is real tension and concentration here. The palate is tensile on the entry, freshly-sliced lime and tangy orange pith, fanning out with a sense of brio towards the finish. This is another classy offering from Olivier Lamy this vintage.Inc. VAT£269.99 -

White Burgundy offers a lot to wine lovers. Its numerous appellations and winemakers really exhibit the breadth and quality of styles that Chardonnay can achieve; from Puligny-Montrachet with its gentle floral beauty and style to Meursault's rich, buttery and savory character. You can return to Burgundy vintage after vintage and still learn and explore.
