The 2017 Morey-Saint-Denis Village from Dujac has a bright red cherry and wild strawberry-scented bouquet, quite Gevrey-like, vigorous and punching above its station in terms of complexity. The palate is structured like all good Morey should be, fine tannins, and though one can detect the whole bunches, they are the guiding hand, neatly enmeshed with the fruit. What a joyful wine. Served blind at Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion. (Neal Martin, Vinous, March 2023)

Mar 30th, 2023The 2017 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru is showing a little reduction on the nose; there’s some charry oak here, not quite as clean as its peers. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, fine balance and finer tannins than Taupenot-Merme's La Riotte. This shows impressive delineation and elegance toward the finish, which is persistent and satisfying. An excellent Morey-Saint-Denis. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting.

Absolutely LOVE this wine. A baby but so hard to resist. Decant it for two hours to allow it to shine. From my cellar.

Austere, pretty and the finish persists. Amazing for “village” wine

Jan 27th, 2020Liquid violets, lavender, mulberry, blueberry and a hum of nutty oak. Fruit is much plusher than the village wine. Fine web of lacy tannin from front to back. Delicious drinking.

So captivating, and only a fraction of what it will, one day, be.

A lot of talk out there about how tannic and dumbed-down the '05 red Burgs are but, given the right address and a decanter--you've got a delicious experience awaiting you!

Started off very tight. Tannins linger through much of the night with only moderate fruit development. Allergies probably didn't help!
