2015 Domaine Hubert Lamy Santenay Blanc 1er Cru "Clos des Gravieres"

“Here the expressive nose is just a bit more layered with its ripe array of plum, earth, spice and overtly floral-inflected aromas. The textured, concentrated and palate coating medium weight flavors possess a lovely minerality that can also be found on the refreshing, balanced and highly persistent finish. Despite being more 2015 in style this is really quite fine. Worth a look.” (04/2017)

“The Clos des Gravières blanc is a great bottling for anyone looking for some of the Lamy magic for a keen price, as the 2015 is a great success. Notes of lemon, orange blossoms, yellow stone fruit and subtle noisette precede a bright, glossy palate with lovely depth and minerality.Drinking Window 2017 - 2030. (WK)” (10/2017)

“(these young vines on calcaire were picked early, at a moderate 12.5% potential alcohol): Pale, bright yellow. Menthol, white pepper and a touch of smoky, chalky reduction on the nose. Hints at ripe yellow fruits on the silky palate; with low acidity, this wine comes across as sweeter than it actually is. Should make satisfying early drinking.” (09/2016)
