Lamy-Caillat Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Les Caillerets 2017 AOC 0.75l

Lamy-Caillat Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Les Caillerets 2017 AOC 0.75l is a white wine made in the heart of the Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, within the Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Les Caillerets appellation. Its texture reflects a calcareous terroir with layers of fine clay, where meticulous vineyard work combines with the expert ripeness of the Chardonnay grapes, offering a clear and distinct blend in the glass.

The history of the Lamy-Caillat house is intertwined with the tradition of a family of winemakers who pass down techniques and philosophy from the family vineyards to the bottles, operating with a discreet curiosity for innovation while maintaining practices that protect the soil and respect the terroir. The bond between people and land, passed down with quiet trust through the generations, is the cornerstone of their identity, marked by a continuity that never compromises quality.

The production philosophy emphasizes careful soil management, manual harvesting, and a winery that enhances the integrity of the fruit. Fermentation takes place under controlled conditions, and aging occurs in wood for carefully calibrated times, maintaining freshness and minerality without weighing down the fruit. The result is an elegant blend, focusing on the acidity as a guide and allowing the complexity to gradually develop in the glass.

What makes Les Caillerets unique is its ability to combine mineral tension, refinement, and narrative depth: the well-positioned exposure and soil stratification give the wine a vibration that evolves with the seasons, offering a velvety yet firm texture and a persistence that invites slow tasting.

Descriptive sensory characteristics emerge from the golden opening with amber highlights, where notes of lemon zest, white flowers, a light hint of toasted wood, and a nuance of almond creep in. On the palate, a mealily defined savoriness, a minerality of wet stone, and an effortlessly lingering texture unfold, with a clean and inviting finish that pairs well with a range of food pairings, from shellfish to herb risotto.

In the producer's portfolio, this Premier Cru represents the link between youth and maturity, offering a reliable reference for those seeking a Chardonnay capable of elevating refined dishes and discreetly expressing their style, even in private tastings or gastronomic conversations. In keeping with the STELT positioning, the Lamy-Caillat Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Les Caillerets 2017 invites a contemplative tasting, without ostentation, where the strength of the terroir is expressed in a measured presence and solid promise.
