Domaine Hubert Lamy Chassagne-Montrachet La Goujonne Vieilles Vignes Rouge 2022

With their dense, clay-based soils, Chassagne’s lower lying climats are ideally suited to reds. This wine comes from a 1.06-hectare plot in the middle of the village in the 1960s. Olivier worked with roughly 80% whole bunches, raised the cuvée in used barrels and did not sulphur the wines until bottling. Olivier Lamy’s reds are getting more precise and offering more finesse; this is a terrific example. Again, you find the darker fruit of the year, blackcurrant mostly, framed by loads of sweet spice.
