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.

The 2019 Chambolle-Musigny Village has a lovely bouquet that effortlessly intertwines subtle garrigues-like “bass” that comes from the stem addition, to the red fruit “treble”. The palate is mediumbodied with succulent ripe tannins and superb acidity. This is very harmonious, lightly spiced and though not terribly persistent, there is such freshness and youthful vim and vigor, that this is going to be impossible to resist.

A ripe combination features notes of plum, spice and pretty violet and lavender nuances. There is both good detail and vibrancy while offering good length if only average depth at present. In sum, this is certainly attractive but not deep.
