Domaine des Lambrays was established in 1363 yet it was only in 1981 that this climat was finally promoted to Grand Cru. The estate was purchased in 1996 by the Freune family and since then dramatic changes have taken place, leading to an upsurge in quality. At 8.8 hectares, this is the largest Grand Cru parcel in Burgundy under one proprietor. "The 2018 Clos des Lambrays is also outstanding in 2018 and I have to imagine that this was one of the first wines picked chez Taupenot in this vintage. The very complex nose delivers an aromatic constellation of dark berries, cassis, French roast, beautifully complex, savory elements, a gorgeous base of dark soil tones, a touch of mustard seed and a suave foundation of new oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and very elegant for a 2018, with a fine core of fruit, superb length and grip and a lovely chassis of fine-grained tannins perking up the very complex finish. This is a first class example of the vintage." - John Gilman Read More
