Description
100% Pinot Noir. Dugat-Py is a high-class Gevrey-Chambertin domaine that has risen to prominence in the last ten years. It was run for many years by Pierre Dugat and, astonishingly, only began estate bottling in 1989. It is now run by Pierre’s son Bernard, who is recognized as one of the shrewdest winemakers on the Côte. The wines are concentrated, yet extremely stylish and well-balanced. Reds and whites are very approachable in youth but show at their best with 5-8 years of bottle aging. One will not find a better village-level wine than this one from Dugat-Py. 30 to 50+-year-old vines give a depth that other village wines simply do not have.
