Domaine Dugat-Py only began estate bottling in 1989 and in only a relatively short time frame has garnered recognition as one of the finest domaines in the Côte de Nuits. The Dugat-Py style certainly leans more towards richness, density and suppleness of texture, but their top-level wines exhibit impeccable balance and excellent longevity. Though not necessarily the most acclaimed vintage, this is a stunning release from the prized Grand Cru vineyard of Chambertin that is now in its ideal drinking phase.
94 Vinous
(from 78-year-old vines planted at a very dense 13,000 vines per hectare; Dugat has just a 200- and a 114-liter barrel of this stuff) Deep, saturated ruby. Cool, vibrant aromas of crystallized blueberry, blackberry, minerals, mocha and bitter chocolate. The suavest of these 2001s, with the powerful black fruit and licorice flavors showing a seamless fullness thanks to perfectly integrated acids. This extremely youthful wine boasts terrific verve and a lightness of touch. Dugat says it will round out further in barrel. Vinified entirely with whole clusters, with the pigeages done by foot.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2003

A Respect for Tradition

Founded in the late 1980s by Pierre Dugat and now run by his son Bernard, Domaine Dugat-Py have swiftly risen to be recognised as one of the most exciting wineries in the Côte d'Or. Although Bernard produces excellent wines from the communes of Fixin and Pernand Vegelesses, Dugat-Py is primarily known for their excellent Gevrey-Chambertin, which run from Villages level all the way to Grand Cru. Vines are venerable, averaging 65 years, and all vineyard work is done in a traditional manner, including the use of a horse-drawn plough.

Dugat Py have been fully organic since 2003 and are moving towards biodynamic practices in some vineyards. Winemaking is low intervention and the wines are bottling without fining or filtration. The wines are matured in French oak barrels from renowned coopers François Frères and 100% new oak is used for the Premier Cru and Grand Cru wines.
