2019 Saint-Aubin, Frionnes, Hubert Lamy (1.5L)
Cask sample. Real wild flowers and biodynamic quality on the nose. Distinctive without any sweetness. Very pure and distinctive. A good bet for ageing. ~ (16) Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com 12-18-2020
The 2019 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Les Frionnes is strikingly good. Mingling aromas of pear, lemon oil, white flowers, citrus zest and freshly baked bread in an inviting mélange, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, with an impressive mid-palate plenitude, racy acids and a long, chalky finish. It's the best Frionnes I've ever tasted from Lamy. ~ (93) William Kelley, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 1-20-2022
The 2019 Saint-Aubin Les Frionnes 1er Cru embraces subtle tropical notes on the nose, where hints of nectarine and apricot intertwine with fine mineralité . The palate is well balanced with sour lemon and lime on the entry, spicy and quite persistent, and very harmonious on the finish. There is a lot going on here, and it is perhaps Lamy's wine that will have the widest appeal. Closure: Diam ~ (93) Neal Martin, Vinous 12-1-2021
This is also exuberantly fresh with its even cooler nose of grapefruit, Granny Smith apples and overtly floral aromas. There is equally good intensity to the wonderfully textured medium weight flavors that flash good minerality on the driving finish that is also bone-dry. Lovely stuff though at least some patience is suggested. ~ (93) Allen Meadows, Burghound 6-1-2021
