2018 White Burgundy and 2008 Dujac: Blind tasting of six 2008 Dujac. The Malconsorts received a lot of love, and was ranked a close third by the group.

Brillaint pop and pour. So much fruit intensity and perfume. Clearly some element of stems but not green. This did shut down after an hour, so I guess we should either drink immediately or let this age for a few more years in the cellar. Lovely wine And outclassed a Vogue Chambolle-Musigny from the same decade.

2019 Visit to North Canterbury, NZ: Served double blind by Huw. Bottle brought back from Huw’s time working at Dujac. Deep, dark colour. A serious, dark nose of black cherry and blackberry, with brushwood, savoury nuances, musk, beef and mushrooms. On palate, serious, savoury and earthy. Not at all showy but showing real quality and gravitas. Black fruit, dried herbs and iron. I picked 2008 – it had 2008 acidity and austerity, but all in balance – guessing it was Morey-St-Denis rather than Vosne-Romanée. Not full bodied but with sufficient fruit weight, architecture and power. Seamless, elegant mouth feel. Svelte, refined tannins. A beautiful wine with years of upside. Wine of the day.

(Vosne Romanee aux Malconsorts 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).
