Domaine Dujac Charmes-Chambertin 2021: A Masterpiece of Burgundy Pinot Noir
Experience Exceptional Elegance
Sourced from Domaine Dujac’s esteemed 0.70-hectare parcel in Gevrey-Chambertin’s Aux Charmes lieu-dit, this 2021 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru embodies Burgundy’s timeless allure. Crafted from 55% whole bunch fermentation and aged in cypress-scented oak barrels, this wine offers a harmonious balance of power and finesse—perfect for connoisseurs seeking a refined yet cellar-worthy Pinot Noir experience.
Tasting Notes & Expert Acclaim
– Aroma: Seductive layers of ripe blackberry, earthy spice, and grilled meats mingle with hints of violet and cedary oak (Jasper Morris).
– Palate: Velvety tannins cradle dark fruit complexity—think plum preserves and beetroot—while mineral-driven acidity ensures precision (John Gilman).
– Aging Potential: Experts recommend cellaring until 2027 for optimal enjoyment; Burghound notes its outlier tannins may soften beautifully over time.
Why This Wine Stands Out
– Vintage Excellence: Part of Burgundy’s celebrated 2021 vintage, known for concentrated flavors and vibrant energy (Wine Advocate).
– Cru Prestige: As one of Burgundy’s Premier Crus, Charmes-Chambertin delivers terroir-driven intensity rare among Pinot Noirs.
– Investment Grade: With scores ranging from 90-95 points across critics like Decanter (93) and Vinous (91-93), this bottle is both a hedonistic delight and a long-term asset.
Serve & Savor
Pair with roasted game birds or truffle-infused dishes; decant for 60 minutes to unlock its full aromatic spectrum. Whether enjoyed now or cellared for decades, this Domaine Dujac gem is a testament to Burgundy’s enduring legacy—one sip at a time.
