Domaine Dujac Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru Aux Combottes 2021

Scores

95 / 100

"The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Combottes 1er Cru, which was made with 60% whole bunches, has a well-defined bouquet, quite tertiary in style with plenty of forest floor and pencil box aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with finely-chiselled tannins, one of the most mineral-driven in Dujac's range, precise and detailed, a pinch of spice, harmonious and quite persistent on the finish. A Combottes that feels like a Swiss watch - precise, precise, precise."

"The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Aux Combottes has turned out especially well this year, exhibiting aromas of sweet red berries, exotic spices, rose petals and blood orange. Medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, its enveloping core of fruit is framed by powdery structuring tannins. - William Kelley"

92 / 100

"Once again, the nose is firmly reduced and showing nothing. On the palate the medium weight flavors are sleeker if less concentrated with a refined, even silky, texture that contrasts somewhat with the dusty, moderately austere and slightly lean finale. This may better harmonize with time in bottle but today the finish is compact and a bit short and as such, my projected range offers the benefit of the doubt. - Allen Meadows"
