The Lamy family has been working in Saint-Aubin since the mid-17th century. Hubert Lamy created his domaine in 1973, over 8 hectares. Today, the domaine covers 18.5ha and produces wines in 18 appellations. Olivier Lamy, who joined the domaine in 1995, has now followed his father into management. Today he is one of the best ambassadors of the Saint-Aubin appellation, which is sadly not well known and is a superb alternative to the Chassagne wines. Less seductive than those of certain neighbours, the wines are superb in their integrity and elegance thanks to a particularly well managed aging process and generally made in 600 litre demi-muids. A not-to-be-missed location in the Côte de Beaune.
Wine Details
Tasting NotesPinot Noir Surrounded by Premier Cru sites, the 'Les Hâtes' vineyard is arguably one of the best village terroirs in Santenay. Lamy's tiny 0.67 hectare plot is in the original Clos - the walled part of the vineyard.

Robert Parker 2020'>"The 2018 Santenay Clos des Hâtes soars from the glass with scents of ripe berry fruit, spices, dark chocolate and potpourri. Medium to full-bodied, perfumed and textural, this is a deep, rich Santenay that's muscular but elegant, confirming Lamy's prowess with Pinot Noir."

Press_Review_2"Sunshine on clay with a good pinot selection explains the quality of this wine. Deep colour with a super succulent nose. Gorgeous ultra-ripe red fruit, more raspberry than strawberry, gourmand and with length. Lovely finished. How the reds have changed here!"
