  Bought first destemmer in 2000 and used it. Pure, red and floral. That is very good.

  Purchased recently off a retail shelf. Popped and poured. Medium ruby with rusty glints. Powerful floral scents on the nose with hyacinth, violets, and lily, but also cherry pits, cinnamon, earth, and wet stone. Light- to medium-bodied on the palate with surprisingly intense layers of red raspberry, mulberry, and black cherry complicated by earth, iron filings, and brambles. Still fresh with copious acidity, balancing integrated and smoothed off tannins. Longer finish displaying echoes of red berry, underbrush, and iron. What a lovely showing. With its delicate, detailed texture, could be mistaken for a "pretty" wine, but more of a steel magnolia.

  I had this wine a few months ago in a tasting. It was a beautful wine and drinking well, so I thought it would be a good choice for the red of the evening, since my friend had not had many Dujacs and I'm a big fan. Unfortunately this bottle was tainted with TCA. Although barely drinkable, the fruit was nearly non-existant and was a reak disappointment. A real bummer.

  Very aromatic from the get go. I could just sit and smell this wine all night! Red and dark fruits, spice and minerality with exceptional complexity. Full mid-palate with long finish with tannins that are starting to resolve and still a lot of nerve on the back end. Excellent wine drinking spot on. A very good 2000!

  Tasting Group Dinner w/ Alan Rath - Pinot (Craftsman, Minneapolis): Wide open, expressive red fruit, flowers, tobacco, and pine needles. Nice texture; medium body and finish. Tasty and, to my palate, nearing its peak drinking window. Classy stuff; Dujac's 2000s are some of my favorites from this (modest, IMHO) vintage.
