Dujac Fils & Pere Nuits-Saint-Georges Aux Cras 1er Cru, Cote de Nuits, France 2022

In 2000 Jeremy and Jacques Seysses of Domaine Dujac launched a venture that redefined the role of the négociant in Burgundy. Under the name Dujac Fils et Père, the son/father team established partnerships with some of the top growers in Gevrey-Chambertin, Morey Saint-Denis and Chambolle-Musigny. The resulting wines are made with the same care and attention the family lavishes on their estate bottlings.

ALLEN MEADOWS -BURGHOUND RATING: 90 - 93
Yet again there is a marked floral character to the nose of earthier dark berries and discreet sauvage nuances. The slightly bigger and richer flavors possess a highly seductive texture with even more evident minerality adding a sense of lift to the powerful and impressively persistent finish that is noticeably firmer.
DECANTER MAGAZINE: 95 
This wine is the finest of the negociant offerings from Dujac — easily tops even the Chambolle. There is a marvellous forward blackberry and mulberry fruit aroma with a hint of exotic earth and game aromas. The texture is pure velvet, plump with extract and deliciously sweet fruit through the lingering finish. The grapes, sourced from a mid-slope plot near Vosne, are fermented mostly as whole clusters prior to ageing in cask to produce this excellent wine.
ROBERT PARKER RATING: 90 - 92
Supple and perfumed, the 2022 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Aux Cras delivers aromas of plums, raw cocoa, vine smoke, orange rind and petals, followed by a medium to full-bodied, pure and seamless palate.
