There is lovely, lifted red-berry fruit on the nose, a pleasingly rounded mid-palate with juicy cherry and just a twist of classic Gevrey rusticity to the tannins on the finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdam Bruntlett, Burgundy Buyer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStarting with the 2000 vintage, Jeremy Seysses set up a négociant business with his father Jacques in order to make attractive and well-priced wine from their own village (Morey-St Denis), supplemented by a wine each from Gevrey-Chambertin and Chambolle-Musigny. The involvement of Jeremy at the domaine has encouraged a gentle evolution in style, though the core Dujac principles of elegance and intensity remain firmly in place. The wines retain their characteristic smokiness in youth which develops into an ethereal leafy quality with age. Dujac Fils \u0026amp; Père is an excellent source for good-value Burgundy. Dujac’s small négociant business was set up as a means of supplying good-quality but inexpensive wines to Dujac customers. As Alec Seysses explains, however, it is getting harder and harder to source grapes of the right standard, at a price which still makes sense. In a year with the difficulties of 2016, the volumes produced are very small indeed, meaning we are only able to offer one cuvée this year. As ever, the 2016s were picked in early October, after the domaine wines.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berry Bros. \u0026 Rudd Singapore","offers":[{"title":"75cl","offer_id":52793500959039,"sku":"2016-06750-1545535","price":145.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0740\/0367\/7503\/files\/20161545535_Dujac_Gevrey-Chambertin-Dujac-Fils-et-Pere_2016_01.jpg?v=1776343782","url":"https:\/\/bbr.sg\/products\/2016-gevrey-chambertin-dujac-fils-pere-burgundy","provider":"Berry Bros. \u0026 Rudd Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
