Left Domaine Dujac

Even very casual consumers of Burgundy have likely heard of Domaine Dujac, considered one of the very best producers in Morey-Saint-Denis. This is a rather astounding fact given that the Domaine is only 50 years old, a blink in the eye given the region's winemaking history.

When Jacques Seysses purchased the estate of Marcel Graillet in 1967, it was in disrepair and had been selling fruit off in bulk for some years. In less then a decade he had invested heavily in the property and found customers for his domaine bottled wines. The Dujac name begin to be seen at top restaurants in France and beyond.

Fast forward 20 years and you have Jacques' sons, Alec and Jeremy, taking over the reigns of the now expanded Domaine, with holdings in Gevrey, Chambolle, Vosne, Nuits and Puligny. Today Jeremy and his wife Diana Snowden (herself from a prominent wine-making family in Napa) are largely responsible for the operations.

The winemaking has evolved. Jacques was famous for using 100% whole clusters and 100% new oak. Jeremy and Diana are the first to tell you that adaptation is key. The climate is changing dramatically in Burgundy, and every vintage presents new challenges. Stem use is between 20% and 100%, depending on the vintage and the vineyard. Same goes for oak use. On a visit there last spring Jeremy was excited to show us his concrete egg tanks that were aging the Puligny-Montrachets.

All of this is to say that this now storied Domaine is in very good hands as it heads into the future.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 93
"(the blend is <70% Ruchots with the balance in Clos Sorbé, Millandes and Charrières, all of which totals .79 ha). There is enough wood in evidence to mention surrounding the earthy and spicy aromas of poached plum and violet. I very much like the texture and energy of the acceptably dense medium-bodied flavors that terminate in a dusty, powerful and more refined finale that displays excellent length. Lovely and understated. Drink: 2033+." -Allen Meadows

Antonio Galloni

AG 92
"The 2023 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru has a little more delineation, intensity and darker fruit on the nose compared to the Village. The palate is medium-bodied, demonstrating a touch more weight than the Village, with hints of red cherry, strawberry and bergamot toward the finish. It's nicely structured and doubtlessly much earlier drinking than the 2022." -Neal Martin

Robert Parker

RP 93
"The 2023 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru unwinds in the glass with aromas of plums, smoked duck, spices and orange zest. Medium to full-bodied, with good depth at the core, lively acids and gently stringy tannins, it will reward a bit of bottle age." -William Kelley

Jancis Robinson

JR 17
"Cask sample. Mid-pale ruby. Lovely nose of bright red-cherry fruit, raspberry and undergrowth. Medium-bodied, and just a vaguest hint of grille on the fruit, but not in a bad way. Meat, not charcoal. Fresh, lively acidity and powdery tannins."
