Expert opinion
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Domaine rated (2013 guide) 2*Stars (These great estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, because of their consistency and the excellence of their production, must be included in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).
About the domain :
"Olivier Lamy has been mastering his craft for some years now, producing wines of exemplary uprightness. As an ambassador for Saint-Aubin wines, he has helped to develop the reputation of this still too little-known appellation. His range of terroirs and his talent for expressing all their nuances show just how many magnificent wines can be found in this village at very reasonable prices. Unfortunately, the volumes available from the estate are very limited.
