"A new cuvée for Lamy-Caillat, the 2018 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Grande Montagne is from a 14-are parcel in the stony, upper part of this climat (next to Thierry Pillot's holdings) that was formerly exploited by Domaine Lamy-Pillot. Delivering a deep bouquet of lime, crisp green apple and almond paste, it's full-bodied, multidimensional and layered, with lovely depth and concentration, concluding with a long and saline finish. Caillat produced three barrels, and I can't wait to revisit it in bottle.
As I wrote last year, readers as yet unfamiliar with Domaine Lamy-Caillat, a tiny estate that ranks as one of the Côte de Beaune's most exciting new addresses, should refer to my profile in the Wine Advocate's Interim End of March 2018 report. Artisanal winemaking and, above all, long, patient élevage is what defines this domaine, with the wines spending two winters on the lees before bottling by hand after natural clarification. The wines evolve at their own pace, and the meticulous Sébastien Caillat devotes immense attention to every detail. I hope other Côte de Beaune winemakers will be tempted to emulate his methods, as the results speak for themselves. His 2017s have turned out brilliantly, confirming their status as the domaine's best vintage to date, and the 2018s are also very promising. Excitingly, several new appellations have already joined the portfolio, and they are reported on in the accompanying notes."

"Domaine Lamy-Caillat is the most exciting producer of white Burgundy that you’ve never heard of. And one thing is certain: as this domaine wins the recognition it deserves, bottles of Lamy-Caillat are only going to become ever harder to find."
