Domaine Dujac in Burgundy was acquired by Jacques Seysses in 1967. The domaine in Morey-St-Denis had 4 hectares of vineyards and he has subsequently built it up to 11.5 hectares. Domaine Dujac now includes holdings in Clos de la Roche, Clos St-Denis, Bonnes-Mares, Echézeaux and Charmes-Chambertin . "Use knowledge and technology to counter accidents - for example, bad weather - but, if all is going well, don't interfere," says Seysses and this principle guides much of what happens in the vineyards and the cellars. Dujac wines are neither filtered nor fined and all of his premiers and grands crus are aged in 100% new oak. These are wines of the very highest order.

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. Date: Jan 2025; Drink: 2033+; Rating 90-93 Points; Allen Meadows; Burghound

Ruchots, Millerandes and a tiny bit of Charrières and Clos Sorbè. A rich deep purple. Reductive. 14% alcohol. Punchy, and perhaps showing the sunshine. It has a much darker fruit than usual, with drier tannins behind. Not easy to taste today. Date: Nov 2024; Drink: 2030-2036; Rating: 89-92 Points, Jasper Morris; Inside Burgundy 

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. Date: Nov 2024; Drink: 2028 - 2042; Rating: 90-92 Points; Neal Martin; Vinous

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.
