Domaine Dugat-Py was formed in 1979 through the marriage of Bernard Dugat and Jocelyne Py, consolidating their respective sets of vineyards. Today the estate consists of approximately 5 hectares of vineyards, including holdings in several Premier Cru and Grand Cru sites. This particular release comes from ‘Les Evocelles’ a village level lieux-dit where the estate owns a 0.8-hectare parcel. The 2005 vintage in Burgundy produced wines that are highly regarded for their depth, concentration, and complexity. The growing season had ideal conditions with a warm and dry summer, allowing the grapes to reach optimal ripeness.

Saturated ruby-red. Very ripe aromas of black fruits and smoked meat. Round, broad and fat; this really fills and coats the mouth with flavors of blackberry and chocolate. Offers a captivating wildness. Finishes with big, building, sweet tannins. Will it be vibrant enough for an outstanding rating?Stephen Tanzer1st March 2007

From 70-year-old vines in a stony, high-elevation site north of Champeaux come Dugat’s 150 cases worth of 20 hecto./ha. 2005 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Evocelles. This smells of ripe but bitter-sweet black cherry, wood smoke, and overt chalk and saline minerality. Coming onto the palate with superb fruit intensity, glycerine richness, and silkiness of texture, it finishes with the clarity, purity, refinement and freshness of fruit as well as the multiplicity of mineral shadings (salt, chalk, wet stone, iodine ... ?) that one anticipates from a great Riesling. (Despite Les Evocelles having been hailed on in 2004, this wine is one of Dugat’s more refined and juicy from that vintage.)

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.
