      Detailed Description

      Ruby-red. Superripe aromas of black raspberry liqueur, minerals and coffee syrup; fresher than the Dugat 1998 Charmes-Chambertin. Incredibly sweet and thick, but fruitier and more minerally than the Charmes. A low-acid confection of a wine, given shape by its tannic spine.

      Reviews:

      • Wine Advocate: Fashioned from 22 h/h yields, the 1997 Griotte-Chambertin verges on being dark ruby-colored. At first glance, this wine appeared to be reticent, yet with aeration, it revealed sweet black fruits, fresh herbs, perfume, and spices. On the palate, pruney fruits, nutmeg, cinnamon, brown sugar, licorice, and super-ripe blackberries are found in this broad, plump wine. In the Dugat style, it is quite expansive, medium to full-bodied , and eminently drinkable. Its complex flavors seemingly last forever. It has power, grace, magnificent depth, and a beguiling satin texture.
      • Burghound: A deft touch of new oak framed bright, expressive, very ripe, earthy Pinot fruit aromas and balanced, slightly extracted flavors that demonstate outstanding length and good vibrancy and acid/fruit harmony for the vintage. Really quite impressive if somewhat particular in style as this has a slightly new world character to it even though it is unmistakably Burgundy in origin.

      Producer Information

      Claude Dugat is a Burgundy producer in the Gevrey-Chambertin appellation of the Côte de Nuits. The tiny domaine with cult status produces a small number of wines exclusively from Pinot Noir, with the most sought-after wines coming from designated grand cru sites. The domaine was founded in 1955 by Claude's father Maurice when he purchased the Grange de Dimes – a 13th Century structure that had been used to store agricultural tithes for the church. Maurice converted it to a winery and cellar and renamed it the Cellier des Dimes. Dugat bottles three grand cru reds from Griotte-Chambertin, Chapelle-Chambertin and Charmes-Chambertin, two premier cru wines, a Gevrey-Chambertin Villages and a Bourgogne Rouge. The grapes are completely destemmed and fermentation begins relatively quickly. The cap is punched down twice a day with very little to no pumping over taking place. The Bourgogne Rouge is aged entirely in one-year-old oak barrels and the villages is aged in a mix of new and one-year-old casks. All the premier and grand cru see entirely new oak. Claude Dugat runs the domaine with his family, while his three children also run the small negociant business La Gibryotte. Claude's cousin is the well-regarded Burgundy producer Bernard Dugat who owns Domaine Dugat-Py.
