Vinous Neal Martin - 17 Jan 24
The 2021 Saint-Aubin Derrière Chez Edouard Haut Densité 1er Cru, from vines planted at 20,000 per hectare, has the most backward and austere nose of Lamy's whites at this stage. The palate is well-balanced with a malic entry and fine depth. Quite a "serious" Saint-Aubin that comes across more like a Puligny in style. Good length, if just a bit aloof at the moment.
