Please see here for background on the vintage and development of the wines in cask.
2017 Echézeaux
2017 is an outstanding vintage for Echézeaux, and Dujac’s is a good example of that. The wine has dark fruits, sensuality, good depth, and some power. The proverbial iron fist in a velvet glove. (94-96)
2017 Clos Saint-Denis
It’s a tribute to the Clos Saint-Denis that it can effortlessly follow the Echézeaux. The nose shows the exotic, Asian spices that are so often associated with wines from Flagey and Vosne rather than Morey, but that are characteristic of this vineyard. The mouth is intense, dense, and pure with the spiced fruits and very good balance, drive, and energy. (95-98)
2017 Clos de la Roche
As with the Gevrey-Combottes, there was some hail here in 2017. The nose is stony, and the mouth features dark fruits. As with most Clos de la Roche of the vintage, I do not find the characteristic tension, but the wine does have energy, penetration, and some minerality. (93-96)
2017 Charmes-Chambertin
The Charmes-Chambertin features dark fruit and minerality in a medium-full body. Jeremy Seysses said he really likes this wine, but for me, I didn’t find quite the precision I would have liked. (92-95)
2017 Bonnes-Mares
The Bonnes-Mares is intense with dark fruits, a beautiful, smooth texture, and notable length. It is a prime example of Chambolle being one of the most successful villages of the vintage. (95-97)
