Very good and classic - a good balance between intensity and freshness. Fairly broad palate of stone fruits and flashes of citrus, the oak was nicely integrated and minerality present. Definitely elegant if not thrilling. This will probably keep, but I'm not sure the upside is there for my palate.

Minerality, limestone, oystershells, flint/matchstick, Meyer lemon, custard, white flowers, hint of butter popcorn but well integrated. Med body, med alcohol, med + acidity, long finish.
Day 2: much more floral, melon, and citrus on the nose, salty citrus on the palate. Absolutely delicious - BIG fan!

Tasted in a lineup of the 2018 Hubert Lamy, Marc Colin, Joseph Colin and Ramonet, all from En Remilly, and after a tasting of the 2017. 2018 was warmer than 2017, and it showed. The Lamy was still the most elegant of the lot, but the Marc Colin showed a lot fuller and riper than the 2017. The Joseph Colin did not show perfectly, a bit dull and a tad funky, but it was hard to pinpoint what was wrong with it. The Ramonet was absolute and pure power. In the long run the Ramonet may be my favourite, but for now it is the Lamy.

Drinking great now. Mineral, pure, well balanced. Had this wine with langoustines with butter and garlic. Great match!
