Dugat-Py, Vosne Romanee Vieilles Vignes 2002

The Vosne-Romanee 2002 V.V. is really starting to show. It’s made from the two Flagey lieux-dits, Les Quartier de Nuits and Les Violettes. The bouquet is showing sweet red fruit with notes of raspberries, sous-bois, asian spices – hints of violets, orange peel. On the palate still quite some grip from the tannins, but also a good concentration of maturing red fruit. The fruit is dense and well structured with a both silky and tannic touch. It’s focused, quite refined and very powerful for this level. Need 5 years more to unfold the palate. A very good effort – would however have prefered a little less Dugat-Py and more Vosne-Romanee.

• In the Glass – Dugat-Py matured!
  Dugat-Py in Gevrey-Chambertin is in many ways a quite extreme producer, with very concentrated and intense wines.

While the level of extraction have been reduced since the 90s it’s still interesting to see how these more extracted vintages are ageing today. This weekend ...
