About Domaine Claude Dugat

Without doubt in the top 10 producers in Burgundy, and one of the top 2 or 3 producers of Gevrey Chambertin. Claude knows every inch of his vineyards and it is this zeal and fanaticism that makes his wines so extraordinary. They are also made in tiny quantities with strictly limited availability and are quite expensive.

With some of the oldest vines of any Domaine in Burgundy, some as old as 70 years old, it is with no surprise that Dugat yields as little as 18 hectolitres per hectare. Dugat's Pinot berries speak of terroir and deliver focused fruit flavors that can electrify, even shock, the palate with uncompromising purity. With no filtration, no fining and little intervention during vinification, it should come as no surprise that Dugat's Pinots are so highly prized for their clean and racy style.

Domaine Claude Dugat is located in Gevrey Chambertin, a wine village of the Cote de Nuits that sits south of Dijon. The land surrounding this village produces some of the finest Burgundy in the world at the Premier Cru and Grand Cru level. The vineyards at Dugat has some of the oldest vines in Burgundy. With some vines as old as 70 years, they only produce about 18 hectolitres per hectare. The grapes are so concentrated with terroir that they deliver focused flavors of fruit that provide clean, racy Pinot Noirs.


The heavily concentrated wines of this house bear rich fruit notes. They are produced from grapes that are sourced from a variety of regional, village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards such as Bourgogne, Gevrey Chambertin Premier Cru and Lavaux St-Jacques Premier Cru, Griotte Chambertin and Charmes and Chapelle Chambertin.

Dugat is a premier Burgundy producer and one of the top 10 in the region. Unfortunately for collectors, the winery only produces a handful of barrels each year. The wines are relatively rare so if you can get your hands on a bottle or two, keep it well cellared and pull it out for a special occasion.

The Dugat Family
Claude Dugat is one of the top two or three producers of Gevrey Chambertain. He is well known in the industry for having an incredible knowledge of his vineyards, a knowledge that create some of the best wines in the world. Claude Dugat makes his wines in very small quantities with a limited availability. For example, he produced only four barrels of his superb 1995 Griotte-Chambertin.

The Dugats, Claude and his wife Jocelyne Py, tend to their vines with great care, cutting them in order to lower the yield and concentrate the terroir from the soil. The couple live on Rue Planteligone at the top of Gevrey and just outside their back door are some of the 50 year old vines that are the base for one of their top wines called the cuvee Coeur du Roi.

Duget continues to work the vines that his grandfather selected for their small bunches and small berries, in addition to their concentrated juice. He maintains the grapes to 10-12 tiny clusters per vine. This creates an even more concentrated juice that yields incredible wines.
