93 Points

Tuesday, January 5, 2021 - At first, a bit hard and stern. In short order, however, the wine unfurls in a magnificent way. A regal oaky, stemmy perfume wafts from the glass (this is Dujac, after all). Deep, cool blue and purple fruits abound on the palate, framed by a smooth, velvety wall of tannin. Some oak spice on the back end. The acidity occasionally pokes out to remind you this is a 13, but this is a delicious wine, and a resounding success. This could certainly use at least a few more years for everything to fully integrate, but it is delicious today.
