In 1984, Baron Patrick de Ladoucette purchased Regnard and has perpetuated the style and tradition of the wines ever since. The Baron's experience in modernizing the de Ladoucette cellars in Pouilly-sur-Loire inspired him to make similar changes at Régnard, including thermo-controlled stainless steel fermentation tanks and sodium lamps in the aging sheds to prevent light damage.

Tasting Notes: A dark red colour with violet highlights. An expressive bouquet full of the aromas of red fruit (raspberries and strawberries) accompanied by a small and agreeable vegetable point. The palate is agreeable and elegant with a frank attack accompanied by a light tangy note.

Winemaking process: Made in the South of France using the Charmat Method for a fresh, fruity and appealing style unusually horizontal vats are used for the production which favour the contact of the lees and the grapes and give a fuller more balanced wine as a result.
This meant secondary fermentation and aging took 3 months to obtain a homogeneous mousse with rich fruity aromas and weight.

Tasting notes: Abundant bubbles, a nose with aromas of pear and apple, a tender yet full mouth that ends up on a nice freshness with citrus notes. A serious competitor for the best dry Proseccos.

Reviews
John Gilman’s View From the cellar Sept/Oct 2011: “This is a very dynamic domaine, on the top of its game right now, and there are a great many St Aubin 1er crus in the cellar here that are at least as stunning as well known 1er cru bottlings from Chassagne, Puligny, and Meursault, and the value that these wines currently offer make them amongst the most exciting white Burgundies to be found on the Cote.”. “The Domaine Lamy wines were amongst the most consistently superb that I have tasted from any estate of this vintage and clearly must be ranked up at the very pinnacle of 2009 white Burgundies.”

Antonio Galloni of Parker’s Wine Advocate, Sept 2011: “This is a fabulous set of wines from Olivier Lamy. From top to bottom, I can’t think of a single wine I wouldn’t be thrilled to drink. Simply put, I can’t recommend these wines highly enough.”. Criots-Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru 2009 : 96-98/100 - Saint Aubin 1er Cru Derriére Chez Edouard Cuvée Haute Densitée 2010 : 96/100

The wine advocate William Kelley 2017 Domaine Hubert & Olivier Lamy - Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Clos de la Chatenière Rating: (91 - 93): “Notes of light reduction frame aromas of crisp green apple, dried white flowers and citrus oil, introducing the 2017 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Clos de la Chatenière, a medium to full-bodied, satiny textured wine with a tangy line of acidity and a pure, searingly mineral finish. Lamy adds the fruit from his young vines in this parcel to his Bourgogne, so this is effectively an old-vine cuvée.”

Region: France, Burgundy, Cote d'Or, Sai
Grape Variety: 100% Chardonnay

Background: Domaine Hubert Lamy is a wine estate based in Saint-Aubin, Burgundy, producing well-regarded wines from that appellation. The domaine also has holdings in neighbouring appellations in the Côte de Beaune, including a tiny plot in the Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru, several holdings in Chassagne-Montrachet and Puligny-Montrachet, and beyond. The domain was established in 1973, but the Lamy family history of vine growing in Saint-Aubin dates back to 1640. Since setting up, Hubert Lamy has passed management of the domaine onto his son, the Méo-Camuzet-trained Olivier Lamy and his wife Karine. The estate now covers just under 20 hectares (50 acres) across Saint-Aubin, Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet and Santenay. However, the majority of the domaine vineyards are in Saint-Aubin, with around two-thirds of the holdings are given to Chardonnay and the remaining third, Pinot Noir.

Tasting Notes: This cuvée is from 10 parcels covering three hectares of village-level St Aubin. It’s aged mostly in larger 500- and 600-litre demi-muids, about 10% of which are new. These vines are mostly in the cooler parts of the village; they manifest themselves in a lemon-zest freshness that kicks in at the finish.
The Saint-Aubin La Princée is very pretty, displaying notes of pear, white flowers, citrus oil and a subtle touch of anise. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, tangy and elegantly textural, with excellent length on the precise finish.

Concluding with a saline finish, this has turned out beautifully.”

Vinification and Ageing: Pneumatic pressing followed by cold settling between 16 & 24 hours, with the aim of removing coarse sloughs (solid particles from the skin, stems, films, impurities that are deposited by sedimentation). Alcoholic fermentations in thermo-regulated stainless steel tanks for precise temperature control and homogeneity of the cuvée then funning at the end of fermentation. Ageing of wines in barrels of 228 liters mainly (a few half-muids) on fine lees for 9 months. Occasional stirring (about 2 times a month) until malolactic fermentation in order to develop both complex aromas and preserve the purity of the fruit, to protect the wine from oxidation (wall and bounce hole) but also from reduction (accumulation of sometimes sulfurous deposits in the bottom of the barrel or vat), by resuspending the fine lees.

Grape Variety: 100% Chardonnay
Vinification and Ageing: The grapes, harvested by hand, are sorted in the vineyards and on arrival in the winery to ensure a rigorous selection of the bunches.

Region: France, Burgundy, Mâconnais
Grape Variety: 100% Chardonnay
Background: Regional appellation of the Mâconnais wine-growing district (dept. of Saône-et-Loire) in the South of Burgundy. Grapes are harvested in Lugny commune.

Terroir: The terroir in the Mâconnais is quite different than that of Burgundy's northern regions. Here it is clay, silica or granite-based. It is particularly because of these differences in terroir that the wines made from the Chardonnay grapes harvested in this region have a mineral freshness about them that is a delight for those who like a change from the warmer more honeyed flavoured white wines of the Côte d'Or just north of the Mâconnais.

Grape Variety: 100% Chardonnay
Background: Antonin Rodet is the exclusive winegrower and distributor of this ancient fortified Chateau dating back to the 12th Century has remained the property of the same family since its origins and today is the symbol of the village of Rully. The origin of "La Pucelle" comes from the way the land was divided in the family: the youngest daughter (a virgin in comparison with her elder sisters) was also given a plot as an inheritance. The vineyard estate covers nowadays over 12 hectares, producing about 60% of Premiers Crus.

Vinification and Maturing: The plot was harvested on September 2020, the 3rd. Grapes were hand harvested, carefully sorted and put into boxes, to avoid bruising or crushing. Once at the winery, the grapes went in a bladder press where they were squeezed from the inside to get the best quality of juice with a minimal exposure to oxygen. Then, the must was left to settle for 24 hours to clarify before starting fermentation. Vinification took place for a part in stainless steel tanks. Once the alcoholic fermentation was achieved, the wine was casked for a 9-month ageing period in oak barrels on thin lees. Stirring was occasional (twice a month) until the beginning of the malolactic fermentation. It prevented the wine from oxidising and helped develop its complexity. To complete the ageing process, we used a proportion of 25% new barrels to give more structure to the wine and bring more roundness.

Tasting Notes: The colour is golden yellow. Aromas of citrus and exotic fruits (pineapple) carried by elegant woody notes. In the mouth, a mineral attack on citrus and exotic fruits, mostly pineapple again. An ample yet lively wine perfectly expressing the parcel terroir with a beautiful length on citrus aromas.
