Vintage Character The 2022 vintage in Burgundy was characterized by a warm, dry growing season, which led to concentrated fruit and lively acidity in the region’s Chardonnays. Lamy Caillat Saint Aubin 'En l'Ebaupin' 2022 is a striking example of the village’s terroir, sourced exclusively from the limestone-rich soils of the 'En l'Ebaupin' lieu-dit.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing This 100% Chardonnay offers a refined aromatic profile, with notes of white peach, Meyer lemon, crushed stone, and delicate florals, complemented by subtle hints of almond and fresh brioche. On the palate, the wine is precise and mineral-driven, balancing citrus zest and orchard fruit with a saline backbone and a long, chiselled finish. Its elegant structure and vibrant energy make it an excellent partner for seared scallops with lemon beurre blanc, roast chicken with tarragon, or a classic Crottin de Chavignol goat cheese, each pairing enhanced by the wine’s clarity and complexity.
