Very Dujac in its stemmy, pine forest character but it has good cherry/blue fruit and a lovely silky texture. Lighter-bodied as I might expect from an '07 and pretty much blown away by the '07 Denis Bachelet Charmes drunk alongside. Dujac was still re-planting and messing with the vineyard in '07 and I think more recent vintages are better. Still, I wasn't complaining much while drinking it.

I was disappointed by this wine considering Domaine, cru and price. @Collector1885 below nailed it. I would write the exact same review today. Possibly still too young, but I didn't sense any future promise. Decanted for 2 hours. CdT Zoom dinner.

Pretty, juicy fruit on the nose, a bit of forest floor, but palate comes up a bit thin and short.

I think this wine is coming into it's own with .nice body and presence. Should peak in the next couple of years and should be drunk before very long.
