What is this wine?
Hubert Lamy Chassagne-Montrachet Blanc Le Concis du Champ 2022 is a refined, mineral Chardonnay from one of Burgundy’s most respected vignerons. Olivier Lamy, based in Saint-Aubin, farms biodynamically and is celebrated for precision, tension, and terroir transparency across his wines. Le Concis du Champ is a village-level parcel on limestone and clay soils bordering Saint-Aubin and Chassagne’s northern slope. The 2022 vintage was hand-harvested, fermented with native yeasts, and aged in French oak barrels (about 20% new) before a short period in tank to settle naturally before bottling.

Why get this wine?
Olivier Lamy has elevated Saint-Aubin and its neighboring sites to near–Grand Cru stature, and Le Concis du Champ perfectly illustrates his understated mastery. The 2022 vintage combines ripe orchard fruit with electric minerality, yielding a wine of Chassagne breadth and Lamy’s hallmark precision. For collectors and Burgundy lovers, it’s a stunning “insider” cuvée offering exceptional value and cellaring potential.

What does this wine taste like?
Elegant and finely etched, with notes of lemon curd, pear, hazelnut, and crushed stone. The palate is layered and taut, framed by racy acidity and a long, saline finish.

When should you drink this wine?
Drink 2025–2038. Serve slightly cool (around 55°F). Outstanding with lobster, seared scallops, or roast chicken. Decant young bottles to release the aromatics.

Olivier Lamy is one of the rare burgundy producers who seems to be equally good at making red and white wine. He is endlessly experimenting and wants to achieve new heights in grape growing and winemaking. He is fanatic about pruning - where some growers might give up on a certain vine, Olivier will cut out diseased portions and coax a damaged vine back to health. This resurrected vine may only produce a few grapes but those grapes have such intense flavor.

Since 1995 he has been steadily increasing the vine density of his vineyards to 14,000 per hectare (compared to the standard density in Burgundy of 10,000; it's far less in other parts of the world). Some are planted at 4,000- 5,000 per hectare. He studied that before the phylloxera epidemic when vines were not planted in rows that vine densities were much greater - so he planted a section of one Saint Aubin vineyard at a density of 30,000 vines per hectare which puts great stress on the vines and reduces yields increasing flavor intensity, extract and acidity. He serves this wine last in a tasting.

There are no recipes at Chez Lamy - he harvests when the grapes are ripe which might be before or after his neighbors. He uses between 10-30% new oak at most but he may use none. The vineyards are farmed more or less organically but he will spray if he needs to fight mildew or oidium. These are uncompromising wines of coiled power and great tension - red or white.

Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 91
"Aromas of pear, green apple, freshly baked bread and subtle hints of citrus blossom introduce the 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Le Concis du Champs, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and racy wine with good depth and cut. This is a specially strong rendition of this bottling, produced from massal selections planted at 14,000 vines per hectare." -William Kelley
