DOMAINE DUJAC
Morey-St-Denis
Dujac is undoubtedly one of the most highly respected Domaine’s in Burgundy and has been producing their characteristic perfumed, silky, and elegant wines since the late 1960’s when the Seysses family purchased Domaine Graillet in Morey-St-Denis and renamed it Domaine Dujac. Since those early days the Domaine has increased in size from 5 hectares to its present size of approximately 15 hectares. Domaine Dujac own holdings in some of the finest Grand Cru vineyards of the Côte de Nuits; Clos de la Roche, Clos St-Denis, Bonnes-Mares, Echézeaux, Romanée-Saint-Vivant, Chambertin and Charmes-Chambertin, as well as Premier Cru and Village level vineyards. Their philosophy is the same for all vineyards with minimal interventions and combining practices from organics, biodynamics and integrated pest management in achieving their overriding goal of ripe and healthy grapes. The Domaine manages to combine both traditional and modern vinification techniques and produces wines that are highly sought after and glorious examples of the magic of red Burgundy.
Dujac, Bonnes-Mares 1995
Grand Cru, Côte de Nuits
Tasting note: The fully mature nose exhibits a beautifully complex array of mostly secondary red and black fruit trimmed with a touch of wood and leads to robust, moderately structured, deep and sappy flavors that offer outstanding length and only a bit of the typical '95 astringency. This has just now arrived at its peak though it should hold here for at least another decade and it's possible that there may be a modicum of improvement yet to come. Tasted twice recently. 91p Burghound October 2008
