The Winehog has a long history with Domaine Dujac, as I have followed it since the early 1990s. I have tasted many wines even further back - including a delightful 1976 Clos St. Denis that is a benchmark for hot vintages, alongside some 1947s and … [Read more...] about Visit to Domaine Dujac – tasting the 2018s

Hope for an old Romanée-Conti, and a delightful Dujac 1976
Tasting old bottles - 50-year-old wines - is something of a lottery. Nevertheless, the expectations were very high this week when I tasted a Romanée-Conti 1966. Let's be honest: It was not in top form. Dead to be precise, with very strong oxidised … [Read more...] about Hope for an old Romanée-Conti, and a delightful Dujac 1976
Domaine Dujac, Vosne-Romanée Aux Malconsort 2010
The Vosne-Romanée Aux Malconsort 2010 from Domaine Dujac is potentially a magnificent wine - although this example perhaps was a bit advanced. The nose is open and complex - lovely display of Vosne spices perhaps brought forward by a hint of VA. On … [Read more...] about Domaine Dujac, Vosne-Romanée Aux Malconsort 2010

Domaine Dujac, Bonnes Mares 1999
The Bonnes Mares 1999 is a tremendous wine. In my view a step up from the otherwise gorgeous 1999 Clos de la Roche. The nose is giving maturing notes, sous-bois, mature red and dark berry fruit. On the palate tremendous depth and power ... a grand … [Read more...] about Domaine Dujac, Bonnes Mares 1999
Terroir View: Domaine Dujac Chambertin
A rare bird the Dujac Chambertin - both a Chambertin Clos de Béze and a Chambertin - as the rules allow this mix of these two terroirs. The production is limited 0.2929 ha, but still slightly bigger than the Domaine Dujac Romanée … [Read more...] about Terroir View: Domaine Dujac Chambertin
Domaine Dujac, Clos de la Roche 2007
The Clos de la Roche 2007 is forward and frank like so many 2007. The nose is brimming with red fruits - based on a moderately deep mineral note. On the palate lovely fruit - good depth considering the vintage, with a vivid and joy-full fruit. Not a … [Read more...] about Domaine Dujac, Clos de la Roche 2007
