Decanter, October 2018

En Remilly is generally regarded as one of the top two Premiers Crus in Saint Aubin, partly because of its proximity to the Grands Crus of Chassagne-Montrachet. Olivier Lamy's expression of the terroir hails from two...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, January 2021

Ample and demonstrative when I tasted it from barrel, Lamy's 2018 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly has tightened up after bottling. Unwinding in the glass with notes of orange oil, nutmeg, pear and toasted bread, it's...

Vinous, December 2020

The 2018 Saint-Aubin En Remilly ler Cru is adorned with an initially oily, almost petrolly nose that recedes to leave aromas of freshly cut lemon plus a subtle algae note. Well balanced with fine acidity, this En Remilly...

(90-93 points) An attractively layered and ever-so-slightly exotic nose features notes of citrus, apple and white peach and plenty of floral influences. There is fine richness to the generously proportioned yet sleek...

The 2018 Domaine Hubert Lamy Saint Aubin En Remilly is a single-varietal Chardonnay from the Saint-Aubin sub-appellation within Burgundy's Cote de Beaune region in France. This white wine boasts an alcohol content of 13.0% and is produced by the reputable Domaine Hubert Lamy.

Renowned for its proximity to the Grands Crus of Chassagne-Montrachet, the En Remilly vineyard is considered one of the premier crus in Saint Aubin. The 2018 vintage, sourced from parcels planted in 1989 and 1990, has garnered high praise from multiple wine critics.

Decanter awarded this wine a score of 94, noting that it is "typically floral, taut and nuanced, with wonderful freshness and salinity and the concentration to age." This review highlights the wine's ability to develop over time, adding to its appeal for collectors.

Vinous, also scoring it 94, described the wine in detail: "The 2018 Saint-Aubin En Remilly ler Cru is adorned with an initially oily, almost petrolly nose that recedes to leave aromas of freshly cut lemon plus a subtle algae note. Well balanced with fine acidity, this En Remilly is very cohesive towards the finish with lingering lemon curd and orange rind." This review emphasizes the wine's balance and length, calling it a "brilliant wine."

Burghound provided a slightly lower but still commendable score of 93, praising its "attractively layered and ever-so-slightly exotic nose" with notes of citrus, apple, and white peach, along with floral influences. The review added, "There is fine richness to the generously proportioned yet sleek medium weight flavors that possess a caressing mouthfeel that continues onto the clean, dry, well-balanced and stony finish."

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate matched the high praise with another 94 score, noting, "Ample and demonstrative when I tasted it from barrel, Lamy's 2018 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly has tightened up after bottling. Unwinding in the glass with notes of orange oil, nutmeg, pear and toasted bread, it's medium to full-bodied, bright and incisive, with a coiled and concentrated core, tangy acids and a long, saline finish."

In summary, the 2018 Domaine Hubert Lamy Saint Aubin En Remilly Chardonnay is a well-regarded wine with consistent high marks from critics, celebrated for its complexity, balance, and potential for aging.
