Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting in Beaune, Domaine Dujac's 2013 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru has a more backward and reticent nose than that of Bichot's, but it is well defined with clever use of stems, wonderful mineralite and poise while translating the essence of the vineyard. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, well judged acidity, clean and pure with superb balance on the harmonious finish that has just a little hardness at the moment. It's a proper sit and wait Grand Cru, but both the sitting and waiting will be worth it. Tasted September 2016.
Deep crimson. Juicy and substantial. Very clean and transparent. Spicy and grainy on the end. Bright and sweet.
