Light tawny color. Clear rims. Translucent. Great aged Dujac nose. Bing cherries, sandalwood, Asian spice, ripe rhubarb and some dry brush. Smooth on the entry. Fruit is present but slightly fading. Good structure. Still in the zone but I would drink these sooner rather than later.

Jun 6th, 2022I brought this, my last one of these. Opened and decanted 5 hours before serving. Bright tawny and almost opaque. Awesome nose. Seems young. Notes of bing cherry, asian spice, sandalwood, some dark earth and some rhubarb. Rich and silky in the mouth. Velvet glove delivery. Awesome wine. My red WOTN.

Feb 13th, 2022Tasted blind. Bright dark scarlet tawny color. Notes of tart cherry, earth, spice and some wood. Has a bit of a green streak in it, but it doesn’t take away from the quality of the wine. Having had 97 Dujacs many times before, I guess 97 Dujac Clos St. Denis. Someone else nails the CdlR vineyard. Good for the vintage but not at the level of the great old Dujac wines.

Mar 21st, 2021Deep dark ruby, barely translucent. Meaty nose. Notes of black cherries, cherry liqueur, herbal medicine, rose petals and a hint of pine needles. Bold and rich in the mouth. Masculine. Good job for the hot vintage. Makes me think of a big Paso Pinot, but with some funk. I liked this more than I thought I would. Good now but probably can get a little better with some additional age.

Oct 30th, 2020Light tawny. Aromatic nose that over the night becomes the wine’s best feature. Notes of ripe cherry, sandalwood, dusty earth and Asian spice. Nice fruit presence in the mouth. Decent but soft finish. While the wine overall comes across as getting a little tired, the smells from the glass are as good as it gets - even 5 hours after opening.
