Lamy has 2.4 hectares in the 1er Cru Les Frionnes, with vines planted in 1935, 1960 and 1985. It’s a southeast-facing site with old, decomposed limestone/clay soils and a plethora of small rocks in the topsoil. The vines are adjacent to the Derrière chez Edouard site, but this is a slightly warmer terroir, and it’s therefore picked earlier. Frionnes gives pulpy fruit, vibrant, saline freshness, and a compact, rocky close. Just 20 hectoliters per hectare were harvested this year (well below even Grand Cru limits). A super mineral, flinty, very citrusy wine. Super delicate, fine and, of course, delicious!
