Hubert Lamy, Criots Batard Montrachet Grand Cru, 2010
🏰 The 2010 Hubert Lamy Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru is an 【exceptionally rare and highly acclaimed white Burgundy, earning a perfect 100-point score from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, highlighting its profound quality and immense aging potential】. Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet is known as the most delicate of the five Grand Crus in its vicinity, emphasizing perfume, delicacy, fine structure, and intense minerality. The 2010 vintage was particularly impressive, noted for an earthy pungency, being lighter and more minerally with a sense of delicacy, and displaying great suppleness and intensity from firm citrus concentration.
🍴 Expect a brilliant pale gold color with aromas of fresh almonds, apricot, and a touch of smokiness. The palate is ample and generous, revealing exotic fruits, coconut, and pineapple, culminating in a beautiful mineral finish. It pairs perfectly with pan-seared scallops, fish (such as saffron monkfish), lobster, chicken, turkey, and is also excellent with truffles.
🥂 Given its perfect score and Grand Cru status, this wine is reserved for very special occasions, significant celebrations, or serious tastings for collectors. Serve between 12-14°C (54-57°F). This wine has remarkable aging potential, with the 2010 vintage suggested to drink from 2035 to 2065, making it a true cellar gem.

The majority of the domaine vineyards are in Saint-Aubin, with around two-thirds of the holdings are given to Chardonnay and the remaining third, Pinot Noir. The domain was established in 1973, but the Lamy family history of vine growing in Saint-Aubin dates back to 1640. Since setting up, Hubert Lamy has passed management of the domaine onto his son Olivier Lamy and his wife Karine.
