Santenay is one of the southern-most villages of the Côte d’Or. This sunny spot on a steep limestone slope, always picked early, and now vinified in a glass wine globe, captured the vibrant essence of the 2020 vintage. It has delicious notes of pear and blossom on the nose, with wonderful tension and crystalline purity on the palate.
100% Chardonnay made using orgainic methods.

Thanks to Olivier Lamy’s expert winemaking, Domaine Hubert Lamy has become one of the stars of St-Aubin. The estate has been in the hands of husband and wife team Olivier and Karine since 1995, although its history predates them significantly. The vineyards can be traced back to 1640, while the domaine itself was started by Hubert Lamy in 1973. Hubert’s extensive expansion over the 1990s led to the accumulation of vineyards across St-Aubin, Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet and Santenay, with production roughly split between 80% Chardonnay" and 20% Pinot Noir. Thanks to his fanatical dedication to his vineyards, a penchant for high density planting and a fully organic approach, Olivier is regarded as a winemaker to watch in the Côte de Beaune. His quality level soars with each vintage and his painstaking attention to detail in the cellar results in expressive, finely-crafted Burgundies.
