Gorgeous and elegant, with finesse, classic white Burgundy acidity, mineral sapidity, and real purity. Beautiful wine. — 6 days ago

This was a bright, crisp, medium to medium-high acid French white burgundy that was a little less mineral than Chablis. $375 at Joujou, I preferred the champagne for $325. — 2 months ago

More delicate than fulsome. Definitely more citrus than stone fruit. Palate intensity is medium plus - some mineral and spice. A classy bottle of white burgundy. The trademark heavy bottle from PYCM. — 2 months ago

A property I have visited. This cuvée has traditionally been one off my favorites from this producer.

Not what I expected. First off vintage of the vineyard and producer I love. A bit too lean. — 4 months ago

Lemon Yellow in colour. Aromatics of citrus, apple and white daisies (Barb). Very delicate on the palate with those aromatics of citrus and apple coming through with minerality. A touch of salinity to finish off. Like most PYCM bottles this is way too heavy. — 8 months ago

Grapefruit and plenty of mineral on both nose and palate. Some austerity as you often get with Saint Aubin. As Jasper Morris MW describes the terroir - “A steep south west facing vineyard overlooking the hamlet of Gamay. It offers attractive wines but not in the First Division of St-Aubin.” The following night notes of mandarin on the palate with the ever present mineral. — 24 days ago

Great,mineral-driven wine. Citrus zest on the nose. Focused and with great tension on the palate. Paul Pillot makes fantastic white Burgundy. A pleasure to enjoy at home with striped bass, clams and chorizo. — 2 months ago

This is my first experience w/ this producer. Reading…a family Domaine that started farming in 49 and made their first wines in 1980 if my short-term memory still works. Built it into 11 Hectares, which is fairly big in Burgundy and certainly so for a family Domaine.

This is one of my favorite vineyards. Particularly fond of Hubert Lamy’s work in this vineyard. The exception was 23, which I felt was too lean. I don’t buy Lamy anymore as when I first started buying it, it was around $50. Now, $160 for their 22. I bought my last two bottles in 22.

This 23 was a much better value at $59.

The nose is bursting w/ expression. Green apple, lime pulp w/ rind, Meyer lemon to meringue pie, kiwi, white stone fruit-peaches/nectarines, pineapple, green melons, honeysuckle, notes of butterscotch, touch of dry to moist herbs, some fresh mint leaves, frothed cream, saline, dry chalky powder to bits, understated white spice, volcanic minerals, dry limestone, yellow lilies, blooming jasmine with greens.

The palate is ripe, lush & cool stream like. Green apple, lime pulp w/ rind, Meyer lemon to meringue pie, kiwi, grapefruit, white stone fruit-peaches/nectarines, pineapple, green melons, honeysuckle, notes of butterscotch, some caramel, touch of dry to moist herbs, some fresh mint leaves, dry stem/twig, frothed cream, saline, dry to slightly dry chalky powder, white spice w/ just a touch of palate heat, volcanic minerals, dry limestone marl to powder, yellow lilies, blooming jasmine with greens, excellent to near perfect acidity, well balanced-structured, mid tension with an elegant finish that lasts nearly two-minutes and lands on volcanics & chalk powder.

I bought more when I finished my notes. This will improve a point in the next 3-5 yrs. In today’s white burgundy world, this at $59 is kind of a steal. 23 whites shining & over 22, which I love as well. — a month ago

On first tasting this wine it was noticeably saline and mineral/gravel on the palate. Also notes of citrus and white stone fruits. Oak influence is subdued - matured in 350 litre oak barrels. Overall a great balance between austerity and opulence. Points off for a ridiculously heavy bottle. — 3 months ago
