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 born in the heart of the Côte de Beaune, in Bourgogne, within the Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Les Caillerets appellation. Its texture reveals a limestone terroir with layers of fine clay, where attentive vineyard work meets the wise ripeness of Chardonnay grapes, offering a clear and distinctive expression in the glass.

The history of the Lamy-Caillat house is intertwined with the tradition of a family of winegrowers who pass down techniques and philosophy from the family vineyards to the bottles, working with a discreet curiosity toward the new without relinquishing practices that protect the soil and respect the nature of the terroir. The bond between people and land, passed down through generations with quiet confidence, is the cornerstone of their identity, grounded in a continuity that makes no compromises on quality.

The production philosophy prioritizes attentive soil management, hand harvesting, and a cellar that enhances the integrity of the fruit. Fermentation takes place under controlled conditions, while aging occurs in wood for carefully calibrated periods, preserving freshness and minerality without weighing down the texture of the fruit. The result is an elegant expression that brings the acidic structure into focus as its guide and allows complexity to develop gradually in the glass.

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

Descriptive sensory characteristics emerge from its golden appearance with amber highlights, revealing notes of lemon zest, white flowers, a subtle hint of toasted wood, and a touch of almond; on the palate, there is a clearly defined savory quality, wet-stone minerality, and a texture that lengthens effortlessly, with a clean, inviting finish that complements a range of food pairings, from shellfish to herb risotto.

Within the producer’s range, this Premier Cru represents the link between youth and maturity, offering a reliable choice for those seeking a Chardonnay capable of elevating refined dishes and conveying its stylistic identity with restraint, even in intimate tasting settings or gastronomic conversation. In line with the STELT positioning, Lamy-Caillat Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Les Caillerets 2017 invites contemplative tasting, without ostentation, where the strength of the terroir is expressed through a measured presence and solid promise.
