95 Points

Wednesday, December 22, 2021 - Poor man’s DRC? When pouring into the decanter immediate wave of stemmy smoky nose. We started drinking after about a half hour but the wine really took off at the 1 hour mark. Only my second Dujac but I can immediately see it’s about the nose - exotic kinky bouquet of stem, herb, violet, lavender, wood, orange peel, smoke and even dark chocolate. Palate at times had waves of dark red fruits with a hint of the candied confection some other tasters have noted. After a while morphed into mint. Pretty amazing wine if still a bit young though you get the stemminess in spades. I have more bottles thankfully will be fun to see how it develops. 94 palate 96 nose 95 overall (wife rated it 96).
