the making of ‘haute densité’…

19.7.2011billn

Perhaps the most astounding wine I’ve tasted this year is the ‘Haute Densité‘ of Olivier Lamy. He kindly sent me a few pics showing his team and the hard work needed to tend 30,000 vines per hectare!

    Hi Bill,

    what really ontrigues me: in one of the pics you get Fréderic Lamy, gérant of 3-Michelin-star restaurant Lameloise (Chagny) actually pushing a plow uphill. Not his normal daytime job. A family link, I guess?

      Well spotted Roelof – now we know where you lunch! It is indeed Frederic (no accents on my Blackberry!) – but according to Olivier there’s no direct family link.
      I assume this type of work is cheaper than a gym membership!
      Cheers…

    I tasted it in barrel and agree with you whole-heartedly. An astonishing wine.
