Grapes are sorted on a vibrating sorting table. They are then transferred into the destemmer and into cement vats via a conveyor belt. The alcoholic fermentation process starts during the next 3-10 days. The must is then devatted and pressed; the juice is settled for one night and is then transferred into the barrels for ageing. The wine is bottled after approximately 18 months of barrel maturation.
Olivier Lamy is one of the brightest stars in the Côte de Beaune, following in the footsteps of his father Hubert Lamy by joining him at the family Domaine in 1995. Sadly, Hubert passed away in October this year and will be sorely missed. The fine quality of his wines has helped to enhance dramatically the standing of Saint Aubin, where it can now be mentioned in the same breath as its more celebrated neighbouring appellations of Chassagne-Montrachet and Puligny-Montrachet.
Driven and hardworking, Olivier is one of the first to understand that most of the work has to be done in the vineyard. The signature racy styling with great acidity and length remains to the fore, always punching well above their weight. They will age well due to their fine balance. The reds offer deep, ripe yet well-manicured tannins with good bright, fresh red fruit character alongside.
