We’re delighted to present the 2022 Lucien Le Moine Saint-Aubin 1er Cru ‘Sur Gamay’ Blanc, a refined and terroir-driven expression of white Burgundy from one of the region’s most revered micro-négociants. This premier cru hails from the hillsides of Saint-Aubin, just west of Puligny-Montrachet, where cool exposures and limestone-rich soils yield Chardonnay of remarkable precision and energy. The 2022 vintage reveals a beautiful tension between richness and minerality, offering aromas of white orchard fruit, citrus zest, crushed stone, and a delicate touch of hazelnut. On the palate, it is textured and vibrant, with layered flavors of lemon curd, green apple, and saline minerality, all carried by a long, elegant finish. Though scores for this specific cuvée are still forthcoming, Lucien Le Moine’s Premier Cru whites regularly receive 95+ ratings from top critics like Wine Advocate, Burghound, and Vinous, consistently placing them among the elite of white Burgundy. Founded by Mounir Saouma and Rotem Brakin in 1999, Lucien Le Moine has built a cult following for its meticulous approach: sourcing only from top Premier and Grand Cru vineyards, practicing minimal intervention, and aging all wines in carefully selected barrels without racking or fining. Mounir and Rotem’s philosophy is rooted in traditional Burgundian methods, treating each barrel as a unique expression of place and vintage. With extremely limited production, their wines are prized by collectors and sommeliers for their purity, depth, and age-worthiness. A rare and distinctive white Burgundy, the 2022 ‘Sur Gamay’ is both a connoisseur’s treasure and an exceptional addition to any cellar.
