Domaine Hubert Lamy Bourgogne Blanc Les Chataigniers, Burgundy, France 2022

Bourgogne Blanc "Les Châtaigniers" 2022 is an exceptional entry point into one of Burgundy’s most exciting white wine domaines. Although classified as a regional Bourgogne Blanc, this cuvée benefits from the same meticulous vineyard work and precision that define Hubert Lamy’s prestigious Santenay and Saint-Aubin bottlings. The estate, led by Olivier Lamy, is renowned for producing Chardonnays with extraordinary energy, purity, and mineral intensity, often outperforming wines from far more famous appellations.

The 2022 Les Châtaigniers displays a beautifully layered profile of white peach, lemon zest, pear, citrus blossom, almond, hazelnut, and wet stone, with a refined texture balanced by vibrant acidity and a lingering saline finish. The wine combines Burgundy richness with the domaine’s signature tension and precision, making it both immediately enjoyable and capable of developing additional complexity with short-term cellaring.

A fantastic discovery for Burgundy lovers, Les Châtaigniers offers a rare opportunity to experience the Hubert Lamy style at an accessible level. A terroir-driven Chardonnay that delivers far beyond its appellation.
