  A point, and a mature beauty. Smooth as silk on the palate, with rich secondary aromas supplementing the usual Dujac beguiling perfume of florals and fruit and spicy stems. Very much stamped by the producer signature, I can't say I mind at all.

  Not the most flamboyant vintage of this wine, I nonetheless appreciated the balance here. Varied soil tones. Classic in overall character.

  5 of 6 opened at 3:00 served at 7:30. Wow the nose on this was very present as soon as I pulled the cork. This wine has clearly benefited from additional cellaring. Compelling bouquet, lots of spice, fine tannins, good balance, steamy whole cluster fruit, a little lacking in the mid palate compared to better vintages, but still a delicious wine

  Amazing aromatics, which were fresh, floral and vibrant. Palate not quite there, lacking definition and purity of better vintages.

  Still a beefy wine. Purple in color, lots of earth, spice, dark berries. Structure still very much present but there is balance. Wine got much more nuanced and softer after a couple hours of air. A success for sure for the vintage.
