Domaine Dujac Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Gruenchers 2020
95 points Decanter
Abundant blackberry fruit, with an edge of rose petals and a texture that is silky but still firmly tannic, with enough structure and extract to lead it to a very satisfying finish. Dujac has a holding of 0.32ha in Les Gruenchers. In 2020 the grapes were picked at just 13% potential alcohol and fermented with a majority of whole bunches prior to ageing in cask (45% new). Drinking Window 2025 - 2040. (CC) (10/2021)

The 2020 Chambolle-Musigny Les Gruechers 1er Cru was showing the stem addition a little more than the cuvées. This is well-defined and vibrant, perhaps to some a classic quintessential Dujac. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, again, quite peppery with a grainy, focused finish. I can envisage this livening up a dinner table, an intriguing and quite intellectually-satisfying Chambolle-Musigny. (NM) (11/2021)
