Tasting Notes
There is plenty of herbal tea character sitting atop the spicy and lavender inflected red currant scents. The sleek though lightweight flavors are delicious, vibrant, detailed and minerally while offering good depth and sneaky good length. This is actually pretty good but it's definitely on the lighter side. Score: 88-90, Tasted: Jan 10, 2019, Drink: 2025+ Issue: 73 - Burghound
How does one of the most vaunted Domaines in Burgundy continue to innovate and change, whilst remaining true to their traditions? In 2000, Jacques Seysses and his son Jeremy launched a new venture that has redefined the role of the negociant. Under the name Dujac Fils et Père, the son/father team established partnerships with some of the top growers in Gevrey-Chambertin, Morey Saint-Denis and Chambolle-Musigny. The resulting wines are among some of the best that Burgundy has to offer. Being negociant fruit, too, they offer outstanding value.
Each wine is made with the same care and attention that the family lavishes on their Domaine Dujac bottlings. Nearly all come from old vines with Jeremy and Jacques controlling the farming methods, yields and harvesting dates. Once at the winery the grapes are crushed, fermented, aged in French oak barrels (up to 50% new) and bottled without filtration whenever possible. As with Dujac’s estate offerings, the essence of these wines is in the pure, accurate, unadulterated presentation of each individual terroir.
