Domaine Dujac Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru Aux Combottes 2022

The wine combines extraordinary power and richness with remarkable complexity and finesse

There is a touch of sous bois now present on the otherwise highly spiced and fully secondary aromas that possess plenty of earth

a giant of a wine that smashes your palate with sweet fruit and nearly tears it apart

An even more elegant nose of spicy and floral red and black pinot fruit is nuanced by subtle traces of sandalwood

This is at once more elegant and spicier as well with its pretty combination of red currant

developing those aromas of smoked bacon

Both 2013s are clearly the finest Eisele wines made under the administration of François Pinault and his top lieutenant

The palate impression is impressively rich with excellent volume along with plenty of the hallmark minerality suffusing the sleek

Behind a frank and dynamic attack

Both wines boast opaque black colors

large-scaled effort that is not without considerable elegance for its mass and volume

This is jaw droppingly good and somewhat curiously relative to how the two wines typically show at this stage
