What kind of wine it is
Domaine Hubert Lamy Chassagne-Montrachet Le Concis du Champ is a still white wine that embodies the essence of Burgundy. Made from Chardonnay grapes, it presents a bright golden straw yellow hue. On the nose, it offers clear floral aromas, which anticipate an elegantly profiled palate. On the palate, the sip is smooth and rounded, characterised by remarkable structural balance and an estimated ageing potential of between ten and fifteen years.
Where it comes from
This wine originates from the renowned Chassagne-Montrachet area, located in the heart of Burgundy, a region with a legendary winemaking tradition. Production is entrusted to Domaine Hubert Lamy, an estate rooted in the Lamy family's agricultural dedication, who have tended the vineyards since 1640. The estate, established in its current form in 1973, manages around eighteen and a half hectares of vines. The agronomic rigour is reflected in an aromatic precision that translates the unique characteristics of the French soil into a well-defined tasting experience.
How it is produced
The winemaking process aims to enhance the qualities of Chardonnay, preserving the freshness and precise flavour definition of the original fruit. The methods adopted yield a white wine with a harmonious profile, designed to maintain its sensory character over time. To fully appreciate its nuances, it is best served at a temperature between ten and twelve degrees Celsius. This wine pairs ideally with lean fish and poultry dishes, and is also perfect for enhancing cheeses or delicate vegetarian recipes.

Most of the development of the Domaine was during the 1990's when new vines were bought or rented (Clos de la Chatenière, Derrière Chez Edouard, Murgers des dents de Chien, Clos du Meix, Santenay Clos des Hâtes) or planted (En Remilly). Some parcels which were planted with Pinot Noir vines were changed to Chardonnay vines because it was considered this was a better choice for the soil type (La Princée).
Olivier Lamy, having first studied winemaking and commerce, joined the Domaine in 1995. Prior to joining his father he did training courses in several other Domaines and tasted wines from all over the world. With this experience he was able to bring new ideas and new methods of working in the vines and in the cellar.
Today the Domaine has 18.5 hectares of vines - 80 % in Chardonnay and 20 % in Pinot Noir. Read more
