Organic/Bio Founded in 1972 by Rene Lamy, the wines of Lamy-Pillot are made by Sabastien Caillot (Rene's son-in-law) who also makes wines from many of the same vines and sites under his own, very sought-after, Lamy-Caillot label. The farming (organic) and winemaking (slow, gentle, modest new oak) are identical for both labels, although the Caillot cellar is cooler so the wines stay in barrel a bit longer.
This is just textbook Morgeot, with this large vineyard's signature breadth and depth perfectly balanced by fresh acids and a persistent, building, sense of crushed stone minerality. Deep aromas of golden fruit and butter-toasted hazelnut pulls you into a rich, round, almost creamy, Chardonnay palate of yellow pear, summer peach and ripe apple. The acids and minerality keep the flavors nicely delineated through a flowing, long, finish where ripe fruit, tangy butter, toasted hazelnut and a hint of fresh mint linger. Already pretty irresistible, but improving for another 15+ years with ease. Just lovey wine.
