It seems as though 2016 white Burgundy is starting to be coming around, whereas the vintage was once a bit awkward and often showed disjointed. ‘Micro’ Domaine Lamy-Caillat is really making fantastic wines and being so elusive, it was great to spot on the excellent list at Daniel. A gentle decant gives it the little kick that it needs to intensify its green apple and rich yellow fruit expression along with a spice tinged, saline and smoky mineral infliction. The palate shows great concentration, density and textural richness and the full bodied opulence of the La Romanée site is cut seamlessly by its zippy citrusy acid spine. Gimme more Lamy Caillat! — 3 years ago

Day 2: earth driven nose higjligthwd with dusty cherry and cranberry fruit. A puff of smoke too. Lighter, but balanced on the palate. Getting into cherry pit, tart rasberry and cranberry here. There a touch of minerality running through as well. Pretty tannin. Appreciable length. Drink now. Solid QPR from the Côte de Beaune. — 4 years ago

Peploes lockdown lot... awesome burgundian PN. — 4 years ago
Pale lemon with medium+ intensity aromas of stone, tropical and citrus fruits with vanilla oak, spice and bread notes. On the palate ripe apple, pear, melon, creamy lemon fruit flavors with notes of wet stone and warm vanilla oak, medium+ balance with vivid acidity. Long finish ending with nutty oak, baking spice and mineral notes. Very Good but can get better with some bottle age. — 4 years ago
Really enjoying the balance here... nose of charcoal and iron shavings, but also dark raspberry and tart cherry fruit. Firm acidity with medium tannins. Cherry and red currant. Just a touch of vanilla and clove. That taste of pulling a leather glove off with you mouth is reminiscent. Appreciable length, finishing with a red apple skin note. I have found that reds from this producer, which are not structured like those from the Cote de Nuits, are a great value play and very approachable young. — 4 years ago

Peploes Lockdown purchase, quite simply superb half the money of Gevrey Chambertin — 4 years ago
Discrete nose of white fruit with pears and also a slight minty and smoke feel, very discrete. The palate is gorgeous, such balance between the perfect acidity and slight richness of fruit and elegance. Another great 2017 CDB. 90-91
Nez discret de poires et une touche de menthe et de fumée mais sans déranger. Le vin est délicieux, quel équilibre entre cette tension appuyée et cette richesse de fruit, juste parfait. Un autre beau blanc 2017. 90-91 + — 4 years ago
