August 31, 2022 - Really well knit together and still showing primary cherry fruit, a deep nose and a medium finish, but I guess I expected to be wowed by it more than I was. Will be interesting to taste my other 2 bottles in a few years.

November 4, 2020 - A great bottle of Clos St-Denis, very much in the current Dujac style. Vosne spices in nose and mouth, medium-weight, concentrated, deep, smooth, red currants. Long life ahead. Cellared since original release.

August 1, 2013 - Good, solid wine. Needed about an hour of air to start coming out. Red fruit, cherries, some tar and chocolate. Very nice, light wine. Pure Burgundy. 93+

Nez très fin qui pinotte.
La bouche est magnifique. Une grande finesse de tanins, certainement un GC. De la fraicheur, un équilibre exemplaire, mais pas le plus expressif au niveau aromatique. Bonne structure tannique, ferme mais élégante. Très beau. 93 pts -

July 24, 2010 - What an amazing wine. I was instantly compelled by the 'Morey' cherry red tar and the red to purple fruit. A very complex and cheery(not cherry) nose of demi glas and sauteed cherries drifting and wafting from mostly red to slightly purple. Amazing depth here with a little complexity and hinting at more when the wine will be older. Awesome! I got to drink 3/4 of the bottle over a three hour period, I audouzed half and the wine guy-my buddy- talked me into decanting the other half. I thought the in-bottle wine did slightly better. Oh well, no need to hurry on these, but the restaurant price tonight was what I paid for a bottle at retail so I couldn't resist.
