2005 | Domaine Dugat-Py | Mazis-Chambertin

Aromas of black cherry, purple plum, sassafras, vanilla, and violets usher in a palate of sumptuous richness, intense sweet purity of black fruits with a caramel edge, and layers of raw and roasted meat and chalky, stony minerality.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: From 65-year-old vines whose 100 cases worth of fruit Dugat didn’t de-stem, the 2005 Mazis-Chambertin displays even more intensity, yet also elegance than the Charmes. Aromas of black cherry, purple plum, sassafras, vanilla, and violets usher in a palate of sumptuous richness, intense sweet purity of black fruits with a caramel edge, and layers of raw and roasted meat and chalky, stony minerality. This offers incredible lift and refinement for a wine of such ripeness and sheer density and the finish seems to defy gravity.

• Burghound: A discreet touch of wood sets off an expansive nose of ripe and spicy dark berry fruit, animale hints and intense earth and underbrush notes that can also be found on the concentrated, intense and well-muscled flavors that are also blessed with unbelievable dry extract that lends a chewy but not rustic character to the vibrant, harmonious and strikingly long finish. This is very tightly structured with dense but fine tannins that are completely buffered by all of the dry extract yet it's abundantly clear that this will be a long distance runner.

Producer Information

Domaine Dugat-Py is a wine producer in the village of Gevrey-Chambertin, Burgundy. It is best known for its red wines made from Pinot Noir in grand cru vineyards such as Charmes-Chambertin and Chambertin. It also makes a range of premier cru wines, and a grand cru Chardonnay from the Corton-Charlemagne vineyard. The domaine was created through the marriage of Bernard Dugat and Jocelyne Py in 1979, bringing together two sets of vineyards. Dugat-Py owns plots in several of the Gevrey-Chambertin grand cru vineyards, and also makes village-level and premier cru wines from plots in Vosne-Romanée, Pommard and Chassagne-Montrachet. The domaine's vines are on average 65 years old, with some vines in the grand cru plots reaching an age of 90. Domaine Dugat-Py's wines are aged for up to 24 months in oak, in cellars which date back to the 11th Century. Compared to a majority of producers in the Gevrey-Chambertin, picking of grapes commences relatively early in the season. Minimal intervention is applied in the winery with no temperature control post fermentation. Given the size and prestige of the domaine, production is small – about 300 bottles are released annually.
