Reviews & Scores
A small crop, though not dramatically affected by the frost. The 2021 Criots started life in a small barrel and then was racked to a glass wine globe. I am spending time on the nose, which is pretty stunning really. Some baked apples but with little white flowers too, very complex, now fresher apples at the back of the palate, with fine tension. The gossamer threads make this wine pretty exciting. Superbly nuanced and very, very persistent. - JM

The 2021 Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru was aged partly in used barriques and partly in a WineGlobe. The exotic bouquet offers light tropical notes of quince and orange pith, crushed stone and lightly oily/lanolin aromas. The palate is well-balanced with fine acidity, fresh and spicier than Lamy's Saint-Aubins, building towards an intense, persistent finish. Very fine, though if I had the choice, I might go for one of his top performing other cuvées. - VM

Lamy's sole grand cru was happily spared by the April frosts, and in the 2021 Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru Haute Densité he has produced one of the vintage's most imposing wines. Unwinding in the glass with notes of orange zest, pear, freshly baked bread, iodine and toasted nuts framed by a deft touch of youthful reduction, it's full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, with a hugely concentrated and youthfully tightly wound core of fruit that's framed by racy acids and an abundance of chalky structuring extract. Long, resonant and serious, this will demand and richly reward patience in anyone lucky enough to latch onto a bottle of the 300 produced. As readers may know, Lamy inter-planted young vines between the existing old vines in this parcel, with a view to improving the quality of its Chardonnay genetics. His neighbors were at first skeptical, wondering if he was attempting to produce more wine, but their fears were soon allayed when they observed his yields, on the contrary, decrease. - WA
