Grapefruit peel, lemon, white flowers and a touch of ripe orchard fruit emerge alongside struck flint and crushed limestone.

Concentrated without feeling heavy, it drives forward into a remarkably long, saline finish charged with freshness and energy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor when:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e you want white Burgundy at its most precise and quietly thrilling.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePairs with:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Dover sole, roast turbot, scallops, guinea fowl or aged Comté.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrom the visionary \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOlivier Lamy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLes Frionnes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e comes from beautifully exposed mid-slope vineyards directly behind the domaine. The vines include old parcels planted in the 1930s and 1960s, alongside a 1985 massal selection, rooted in poor, stony clay-limestone soils. Lamy’s high-density planting and early harvesting preserve intensity and natural acidity, while spontaneous fermentation and around a year on the lees in used 350-litre barrels build texture without obscuring the vineyard’s extraordinary mineral character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbout the 2024 Vintage in Burgundy:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2024 was a demanding, cool-growing vintage shaped by persistent rain, mildew pressure and greatly reduced yields.
