Jasper Morris MW quotes “Dujac wines are not necessarily the deepest in colour but are noted for their exceptional fragrance, structure and longevity. With seven grands crus in the stable, Dujac is today one of Burgundy’s leading domaines”.
Domaine Dujac in Burgundy was acquired by Jacques Seysses in 1967. The domaine in Morey-St-Denis had 4 hectares of vineyards and he has subsequently built it up to 11.5 hectares. Domaine Dujac now includes holdings in Clos de la Roche, Clos St-Denis, Bonnes-Mares, Echézeaux and Charmes-Chambertin . “Use knowledge and technology to counter accidents – for example, bad weather – but, if all is going well, don’t interfere,” says Seysses and this principle guides much of what happens in the vineyards and the cellars. Dujac wines are neither filtered nor fined and all of his premiers and grands crus are aged in 100% new oak. These are wines of the very highest order.
89 Points Allen Meadows
A discreet application of wood serves as a neutral backdrop for the exuberantly fresh dark berry fruit, floral and earth scents. The rich, suave and appealingly energetic middle weight flavors possess fine volume while delivering solid depth and length on the relatively robust and firm finale. Moderate patience suggested.
90 Points Robert Parker Wine Advocate
The 2014 Morey-Saint-Denis Rouge Village has a straightforward bouquet with blackberry and boysenberry scents. The palate is well balanced with chalky tannin, a touch of cassis come through with a correct and linear, quite saline finish that lacks a little body. This is very…Morey, and that’s a good thing.
