Tasting Notes

91-94
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Sep 12
Pale, bright lemon-yellow. Pure, high-pitched aromas of lemon verbena, honey and spices. Fat, sweet and generous, showing a saline complexity to its ripe pear and rocky calcaire flavors. Conveys an almost glyceral density that's rare for the vintage and finishes strong, sweet and long. Lamy says this wine is always hard to taste in its first 12 months and that it gains complexity and length with its last months of elevage. But I've got no complaints today.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 16 Jun 22
Notions of citrus oil, chamomile, bee pollen and freshly baked bread preface Lamy's 2011 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Derrière Chez Edouard Haute Densité, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered wine that's fleshy and enveloping, with chalky grip and a saline finish. This stands out as one of the more open, early-maturing vintages in the series, and even if it will never hit the same heights as the great vintages, it has the advantage of being approachable sooner.
