Hubert LamyBurgundy, France

Domaine Hubert Lamy is one of the most exciting domaines in the Côte de Beaune, known for its innovative viticulture and masterful handling of Chardonnay. Olivier Lamy’s work in the vineyard is pioneering, from high-density plantings to a meticulous focus on canopy and soil health. His philosophy centres on precision and purity, creating wines that are as distinctive as they are expressive. 

The whites show remarkable tension and drive, balancing citrus brightness with a deep, resonant mineral core. They are wines of texture and finesse, revealing extraordinary detail while remaining beautifully understated. Lamy continues to redefine what is possible in Saint-Aubin and beyond, and his wines have become essential for lovers of refined, terroir-driven Burgundy. 

Although the Lamy family had been farming vines in Saint Aubin since the seventeenth century, it was not until 1973 that Hubert created a domaine under his own name. He spent the following decades expanding and replanting, often choosing higher and cooler sites that were not yet in fashion, and quietly set the estate on a more ambitious path. When his son Olivier joined in the 1990s, things took another leap forward. High density plantings, meticulous canopy management and an almost forensic interest in terroir transformed the domaine into one of the most dynamic in the Côte de Beaune. It is a story of foresight, experimentation and a family’s willingness to rethink what their vineyards could be.
