| Vintage: | 2020 |

| Description: | Jasper Morris 91 Points - " The village St-Aubin is blended from 10 plots across the appellation. Full lemon yellow with a green tint. The bouquet has the Lamy balance of freshness with intensity of fruit. Lightly smoky. A little greengage behind. Still very backward, but promising. Drink from 2025-2030.". Wine Advocate 90 Points - " The 2020 Saint-Aubin La Prince is also very attractive, offering up aromas of crisp green apple, fresh mint, white flowers and warm bread, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny palate that's built around racy acids and chalky extract. It's a model of purity and precision. This is another strikingly good vintage for Olivier Lamy, whose tireless efforts over the last 25 years are now consistently delivering some of contemporary Burgundy's greatest wines. Whether it's cutting-edge viticulture, including plantings at over 20,000 vines per hectare and unhedged canopies; extended maturation on the lees, which now amounts to 24 months in total, 23 of those in largely neutral wood; obsessive attention to closures and bottling practices; or a host of other small details that, cumulatively, make the difference between the best and the rest, Lamy has spared nothing to get to where he is today. While his ultra-rare Haute Densit bottlings are now almost impossible to source, readers will still find it easy to secure his more modest cuves. Forget them in the cellar for a decade and reap the rewards!" |
