Domaine Hubert Lamy Derriere Chez Edouard Rouge Vieilles Vignes 2023
The 2023 Derrière Chez Edouard Rouge Vieilles Vignes from Domaine Hubert Lamy is a rare and refined expression of Pinot Noir from Saint-Aubin — a site better known for its whites, yet equally capable of producing reds of striking purity and finesse. From old vines rooted in the domaine’s steep, limestone-rich slopes above the village, this cuvée captures the hallmark tension, aromatic lift, and mineral freshness that define Lamy’s style.
Technical Notes
- Grape Variety: 100% Pinot Noir
- Appellation: Saint-Aubin Rouge, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy
- Vineyards: Derrière Chez Edouard, high-altitude parcel with limestone and marl soils; old vines averaging 40–60 years
- Farming: Certified biodynamic and organic; hand-harvested at low yields
- Vinification: Native yeast fermentation; partial whole-cluster inclusion for aromatic lift; aged in neutral French oak barrels; bottled unfined and unfiltered
- Alcohol: ~13% ABV
Terroir
Perched above Saint-Aubin, the Derrière Chez Edouard vineyard features thin, chalky limestone soils and a cool exposure that gives the Pinot Noir grapes remarkable freshness, fine tannins, and aromatic precision. The old vines dig deep into the rock, producing small berries of intense concentration, while Lamy’s restrained touch in the cellar ensures a pure, transparent expression of site.
Tasting Notes
The 2023 vintage opens with aromas of red currant, wild strawberry, rose petal, and crushed stone, framed by subtle hints of spice and forest earth. The palate is lithe and finely textured, offering flavors of cranberry, pomegranate, and blood orange, supported by lively acidity and chalky tannins. There’s both vibrancy and depth here — a balance of delicacy and quiet power that defines Lamy’s reds.
Domaine Hubert Lamy’s Saint-Aubin “Derrière Chez Edouard” Rouge Vieilles Vignes 2023 is a pure, mineral-driven Pinot Noir of great finesse and aromatic complexity. A rare expression of red Saint-Aubin, it’s ideal for Burgundy lovers seeking elegance over opulence — best enjoyed with roasted poultry, duck, or earthy mushroom dishes, and capable of graceful evolution over the next decade.
