Les Murgers des Dents des Chiens lies alongside En Remilly above Le Montrachet, and in 2015 chez Lamy has produced an even more mineral, concentrated wine than its neighbour. It is brimming with notes of iodine, wet stones and lemon zest. Intense, powerful and tight-knit on the palate, this will be great with a bit of bottle age. - William Kelley, Decanter

There are two large 600-litre barrels for the 2015 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru les Murgers des Dents de Chien this year. The bouquet appeared a little timid at first and demanded more coaxing from the glass than other cuvées. The palate is fresh and tensile on the entry, citric peel and orange zest at the front palate, quite penetrating in the mouth with a touch of sour lemon on the potent, tensile finish. Alongside the En Remilly, this is one of Olivier Lamy's finest offerings from Saint-Aubin this year. Neal Martin – The Wine Advocate

Tasting note: This is the first wine to display heavy reduction and it's enough to push the underlying fruit to the background. On the plus side there is excellent size, weight and a taut muscularity to the intense middle weight plus flavors that possess outstanding depth and persistence on the impeccably well-balanced finish. This is a big yet focused wine that should amply repay mid-term cellaring. Recommended. Sweet Spot – Outstanding – Allen Meadows – Burghound 2021+

(these virused 35-year-old vines produce very small yellow grapes): Bright, pale yellow-green. High-pitched aromas of lime blossom and lemon peel. Conveys the sucrosité of tiny grapes, but Lamy insists that this wine is bone-dry. A menthol quality accentuates this rather extreme wine's impression of density. This will need a few years in the cellar to fully express itself. - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous Media

The most prized terroir of Saint-Aubin, Les Murgers sits above En Remilly and curves south to southeast, sharing the same exposition and altitude as Puligny-Montrachet premier cru Les Champs Gains. It sits between twenty and sixty meters directly above Chevalier-Montrachet.
