1996 Lamy Saint-Aubin Les Murgers des Dents de Chien

Have always enjoyed chardonnay from this vineyard which borders Puligny-Montrachet. The 1996 vintage is especially good. Bracing lemon with fine stony minerality. After a couple of hours, it really started to open up and began to display complementary tropical notes. A lovely example of this vineyard, which has an interesting name that means "dog toothed stone wall". Lamy is one of the best known producers in the Saint-Aubin appellation.
