Domaine Hubert Lamy: The Exceptional Red of Chassagne-Montrachet

The Chassagne-Montrachet 'La Goujonne Vieilles Vignes' Rouge by Domaine Hubert Lamy is a rare and sophisticated Red Burgundy, a masterful expression of Pinot Noir from a village famed for its white Grand Crus. This wine is crafted from the 'La Goujonne' vineyard, where Vieilles Vignes (V.V. - Old Vines), planted in 1950, produce grapes of unparalleled intensity and complexity from the deep, compact clay soils.

The Sommelier's Notes

Olivier Lamy’s meticulous, low-intervention farming and cellar work-including minimal new oak-ensure the wine speaks clearly of its provenance. Expect a wine that is both structured and silky, a true insider's Burgundy.

• Appearance: A clear, brilliant ruby hue.
• Aroma: Layers of lifted red fruit-think fresh cherry, wild raspberry, and a hint of game-complemented by subtle earthiness, clove spice, and a refreshing minerality.
• Taste: The palate is concentrated and dense, yet beautifully poised. The tannins are present but fine-grained, giving structure to the rich, concentrated fruit. A lengthy, persistent finish confirms its quality and aging potential.

Food Pairing & Service

This fine Pinot Noir is a superb partner for game and rich poultry. Serve slightly chilled to enhance its delicate aromatic lift.

• Serving Suggestion: Decant for 60 minutes and serve at 15-16°C.
• Ideal for: Special occasions and long-term cellaring.
