2016 Santenay 1er Cru Blanc, Clos des Gravières, Hubert Lamy

Politically the last village of the Côte d’Or, Santenay’s wines were once held in higher regard, but in Olivier’s capable hands they’re finding their feet again, punching well above their price points. The 2016 Gravières is cool and fresh, really finessed on the palate with a chalky texture and lots of energy.

Domaine Hubert Lamy

Olivier Lamy returned to the family domaine in 1995 to work with his father, but the history of this St Aubin estate goes back even further, to 1640. In our Autumn 1990 price list we were already calling their Frionnes ‘a real favourite.’ With Olivier’s willingness to experiment, the estate has risen to a new level. His wines are always some of the purest expressions of Chardonnay in Burgundy.
