There are two large 600-litrer barrels for the 2015 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru les Murgers des Dents de Chien this year. The bouquet appeared a little timid at first and demanded more coaxing from the glass than other cuvees. The palate is fresh and tensile on the entry, citric peel and orange zest at the front palate, quite penetrating in the mouth with a touch of sour lemon on the potent, tensile finish. Alongside the En Remilly, this is one of Olivier Lamy’s finest offerings from Saint-Aubin this year.
Anticipated maturity: 2018-2030
(these virused 35-year-old vines produce very small yellow grapes): Bright, pale yellow-green. High-pitched aromas of lime blossom and lemon peel. Conveys the sucrosite of tiny grapes, but Lamy insists that this wine is bone-dry. A menthol quality accentuates this rather extreme wine’s impression of density. This will need a few years in the cellar to fully express itself.
