Lamy/Hubert St-Aubin 1er cru Derrière Chez Edouard V.V. Rouge 2019

90-92 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): “(from a .95 ha parcel planted in 1960; 70% whole clusters in 2019). Here the nose is firmly reduced and unreadable. Otherwise there is first-rate detail to the mineral-driven flavors that offer a step up in refinement as well as a bit more overall depth and persistence on the linear and mildly austere finale. This too possesses very good quality and is a wine that should develop well if allowed 6 to 10 years of bottle age. Drink: 2026+. (Apr 2021)”

91 points Neal Martin (Vinous): “The 2019 Saint-Aubin Derrière Chez Edouard 1er Cru (Rouge) has a very focused bouquet of brambly red fruit, light loamy scents, damp autumn earth and powdered chalk, all delivered with fine delineation. The medium-bodied palate offers black currant and raspberry fruit, slightly chalky tannins and a bitter cherry finish that gets the saliva flowing. Drink: 2023-2033. (Dec 2021)”
