JK's 50th Birthday: Magnum, decanted to serve. This vintage of Dujac speaks for itself. Substantial, high acidity, ethereal, perfect balance, will hold for a long time. 94+

Acker Auction BYO (Craft NYC): A great vintage at the Domaine, and while this has all the awesome stem, smoke and spice aromas that I love in Dujac, the palate is still a bit stern and needing some time. Better in 5+ years.

BM Dinner (Summer Pavilion): Highly (whole cluster) aromatic with good airiness. Love the savouriness, mint, cloves, red and blue fruits, very complex, fresh and attractive. Superbly balance, sweet/savoury/acid all in perfect proportion, with growing intensity and richness on the palate yet still remain weightless. Long, delineated and pure. This is a classy juice. Love the salinity at the back.
Not at the peak for sure but the perfect balance make this a nice drink even for now. Will only get better with age.

(Dujac Bonnes Mares Grand Cru) Dujac Dear Friends, Those of you who’ve followed the elevage of Dujac’s 2008 portfolio already know what I'm about to say: this is a world-beating set of wines that is probably the finest ever produced at this storied address. Across the board, the wines are at a level normally reserved for only a (small) handful of the most elite producers of Burgundy – including DRC and Leroy. The prices are high but compared to the current Bordeaux madness or other collectable Burgundy of this ilk, they are within reason (you’ll have to check pricing on the 2007s for many of these as they are so limited in 2008, no listings exist). It’s tough to pick favorites but a general rule is that you will not be disappointed with any of them: (Please note: magnums are available of most wines, they are slightly more than double the price of the 750mls - please inquire) 2008 Domaine Dujac Chambolle Musigny “Les Gruenchers” 1er - 2008 Domaine Dujac Gevrey-Chambertin “aux Combottes” 1er - 2008 Domaine Dujac “Charmes Chambertin” - 2008 Domaine Dujac “Clos de la Roche” - 2008 Domaine Dujac “Bonnes Mares” - 2008 Domaine Dujac “Clos Saint Denis” - 2008 Domaine Dujac “Chambertin” - 2008 Domaine Dujac “Romanee Saint Vivant” - 2008 Domaine Dujac “Echézeaux” - . 2008 Domaine Dujac Vosne Romanee “aux Malconsorts” 1er - 2008 Domaine Dujac Vosne Romanee “Les Beaux Monts” 1er - To order any of the above or to inquire about magnums: niki@garagistewine.com This parcel is set to depart the cave – it will arrive in the late summer (please check OARS for local pick up after Sept 1st).

Big tannins high acidity so still needs more time but with a couple of hours air it mellowed. Meaty smoky nose.

Acker's COVID-Vaccinated BYO Dinner and Auction Simulcast (Craft - New York NY): Small glass, brief note. Nose exactly as anticipated and hoped- lots of bright red fruit and great spice. Similar flavors but with a slightly awkward structure that makes the wine seem imperfectly harmonious. Better to cellar longer.
