Hubert Lamy Bourgogne Chataigniers 2019
From one of Saint-Aubin’s sunniest sites, the 2019 Bourgogne Les Chataigniers reveals Olivier Lamy’s hallmark balance of generosity and steely drive. A warm, low-rainfall year yielded luscious pear, white peach and beeswax notes framed by a refreshing seam of saline minerality. This entry-level Bourgogne captures the energy of its hillside slopes with effortless clarity.
