Domaine Dujac, Gevrey Chambertin Aux Combottes 1999

The Dujac Aux Combottes 1999 is surely but slowly opening up and starting to show the glory of the 1999 vintage. In the bouquet red and green strawberries, gooseberries and cherries with hints of redcurrent. On the palate quite fresh and surpriingly crisp pinot aromas. Lovely fruit, still tight but with a good midpalate concentration – long lingering finish. Lovely expression of this outstanding vintage. Need some years to open fully … and 10 years more to reach a level of full maturity. Much better than the bottle tasted last year – Fine+
