    December 31, 2023 - Gorgeous aromas of stem spice, toasted herbs and red fruit. Palate follows suit and is in an absolute peak. Long, stem-spice filled finish.

    March 29, 2023 - Darkish red fruit, tea, stems, wild flowers, clove and spice. Palate is resolved and expressive with charming sweetness. The 08 Chambolle Les Gruenchers is wide open now. This is more 07 Dujac than 08 to me when its served in blind.

    October 15, 2022 - An explosive and seductive nose of black cherry, spice, black tea and whole cluster. Medium weight fruit is nuanced with spice, earth and stem spice. Silky ferrous tannins. At peak and should hold for a decade+ at this level.

    December 19, 2021 - Singing with stem spice, red fruit and emerging earth/iron notes. Terrific balance of fruit and structure and in a peak drinking window

    March 4, 2021 - Chambolle Northside 1er (Zoom / Chicago): 06/07/08 flight. A wow nose with intense aromas of spice and stem-filled red cherry. This is just singing on the palate with a killer vibrance that adds harmony/intensity to the complex range of flavors and adds length/energy to the wine. Perfectly poised. Long, pristine finish. Terrific.

    (Dujac Chambolle Musigny Les Gruenchers 1er 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). It will ship during the Fall shipping season. Out of state orders will be held for free under ideal storage conditions (56 degrees/70%humidity) until shipping is possible. Locals may pick up at their leisure. For current local pick up and arrival/ship information, please see your OARS link below (at the bottom of this offer) - don’t know how to access your OARS?
