93 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2019 Saint-Aubin Les Frionnes 1er Cru embraces subtle tropical notes on the nose, where hints of nectarine and apricot intertwine with fine mineralité. The palate is well balanced with sour lemon and lime on the entry, spicy and quite persistent, and very harmonious on the finish. There is a lot going on here, and it is perhaps Lamy's wine that will have the widest appeal. Closure: Diam. Drink: 2022-2038. (Dec 2021)"
93 points La Revue du Vin de France: "The estate produces magnificent whites that bring out the best in each terroir, thanks to concentrated grapes that give energy, brightness and depth to the wines. Like the superb Saint-Aubin Premier Cru Les Frionnes, with its intense nose of yellow-fleshed fruit and stones. Very pure aromatic expression, thanks to balanced ageing. The palate is in the same vein, with dense matter, an almost tannic feel and lively acidity. . (2023)"
90-93 points/'Sweet spot/Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "This is also exuberantly fresh with its even cooler nose of grapefruit, Granny Smith apples and overtly floral aromas. There is equally good intensity to the wonderfully textured medium weight flavors that flash good minerality on the driving finish that is also bone-dry. Lovely stuff though at least some patience is suggested. Drink: 2026+. (Jun 2021)"
Bill Nanson (Burgundy Report): "(80 and 9 year-old vines). A clean, fresh nose. Extra high toned fresh energy here – juicy wine. Ooh, really juicy finishing too. (Oct 2020)"
