f you’re a Dujac fan you know they are some of the wines of the vintage in 2008 and such is shown in 08 Charmes, an elegant, pure and refined rendition with a seductive Dujac nose that explodes with some air. It’s dark fruited, powerful and savory, layered with spices, violets and game. It’s liquid velvet in the mouth with excellent concentration that gains with air, fine grained tannins and a superbly long, lifted, saline and mineral inflicted finale. A fantastic Charmes. — 3 months ago
I will start with I was impatient and didn’t decant and consumed within 2 hours. So I didn’t really give this a fair chance to broaden. It was nonetheless very enjoyable but definitely muted. Lots of earth and depth. Fruit is buried but perhaps if I had been more accommodating it would have emerged more boldly. Solid old world PN. — 17 days ago
Oh so good tonight. Pnp perfection, offering gorgeous spicy aromatics with black and blue fruit, licorice, violets and dark cocoa. The palate is pure velvet, sappy, focused and concentrated with multidimensional depth of flavor, balanced acids and minerality that give way to a long saline and spice tinged finale. Love the vintage for Dujac, particularly the Vosne bottlings. — 2 months ago

Premier Cru, but really Grand Cru, Malco, one of my favorite wines on the planet is just rocking tonight, pnp perfection wafting an unmistakable Dujac nose with layers of violets, cocoa beans, fresh red berry fruit and whole brunch stemmy spice. The palate is pure silk with a mastery in balance of richness, purity and delivery of fruit, texture and acids with a finish that just keeps on going. Amazing wine. — 6 days ago
