Another dark, mysterious wine, the 2012 Charmes-Chambertin is laced with dark red plum, smoke, incense and savory/floral notes. The flavors are rich, round and layered, adding to a sense of simply impeccable balance and pure texture.Inc. TAX€434.35 -
(6x75cl) 2013Vinous (93+)
(two-third Charmes and one-third Mazoyères): Bright ruby-red. Highly complex scents of black raspberry, wild faded rose, menthol, bitter chocolate and licorice. Juicy, spicy and round, with a firm spine of acidity invigorating the dark fruit, spice and floral flavors. Finishes lively and very long, with serious tannins buffered by mid-palate material. Strong juice!Inc. TAX€3,336.72 -
(3x75cl) 2017Decanter (97)
The Dugat-Py family have nearly 1ha of Charmes-Chambertin, divided two-thirds to one between Charmes itself and Mazoyères. Picked early, this is a serious, textured, wild-herb-scented wine, beautifully crafted to combine structure with fruit weight, supported by acidity and adroitly handled new wood.Inc. TAX€1,950.37 -

Offering up aromas of cherries, wild berries, licorice and loamy soil that only hint at the aromatic range to come with a little bottle age, the 2018 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru is full-bodied, layered and sumptuous, its deep and multidimensional core fruited by rich but refined tannins and lively balancing acids, concluding with a long, beautifully defined finish. This is a serious, concentrated Charmes that—as I wrote last year—fully vindicates Loïc Dugat-Py's decision to harvest early, as well as his move to a reduced percentage of new oak (only 66%) for this cuvée.Inc. TAX€5,088.72 -
(3x75cl) 2019Burghound (96)
A markedly floral nose is quite pretty with its array of earth, liqueur-like dark berries and lovely spice wisps. There is again outstanding volume to the beautifully textured large-scaled flavors that exude a bracing salinity on the sneaky long and well-balanced if overtly austere finale that displays absolutely stunning length. Here too plenty of patience will be required.Inc. TAX€2,256.37 -

Aromas of dark cherries, licorice, peonies and sweet spices, framed by a deft touch of classy new oak, introduce the 2020 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru, a full-bodied, ample and satiny wine that's fleshy and gourmand, its sweet, powdery tannins entirely concealed in an enveloping core of vibrant fruit. Such is its underlying substance and incipient complexity, however, that I suspect its immediate charm is deceptive.Inc. TAX€2,154.37 -

Here the more reticent nose isn’t as elegant though it is more complex with its layered blend of red and dark pinot fruit, anise and discreet earth and floral wisps. The supple and highly seductive medium weight flavors possess excellent depth and persistence on the mildly austere finale. This is already appealing and several years of cellaring should only enhance its attractiveness.Inc. TAX€5,608.54 -

The 2022 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru reveals the same seriousness it displayed in barrel. Unwinding in the glass with notes of cherries, dark berries, orange zest and petals, it's full-bodied, layered and enveloping, built around a chassis of sweet, powdery tannins and animated by lively acids. While this is generally the domaine's most immediate grand cru, the 2022 will nevertheless demand a bit of patience.Inc. TAX€4,714.78 -

(6x75cl) 2002Vinous (92+)
Bright, full ruby-red. Pure, penetrating aromas of blackberry, violet, minerals and dark chocolate. Juicy, minerally and tightly wound, with a youthfully imploded core of dark fruits. Kept firm by an edge of acidity. Best today on the very long, subtle back end. This needs a good seven or eight years of cellaring.Inc. TAX€3,741.66 -

Much as it was from barrel, the 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques is immensely promising, mingling aromas of wild berries and cassis with hints of smoked meats, spices, rose petals and black truffles in an incipiently complex bouquet. Deep, full-bodied and multidimensional, it's layered and concentrated, with lively acids, immense concentration and a long, penetrating finish. Built to age, it will demand patience.Inc.

Another highlight of the range this year is the 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques, a beautifully vibrant, penetrating wine that will likely prove almost immortal. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of rose petals, exotic spices, orange zest and sweet wild berries, it's full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a seamless, integrated profile and a racy spine of acidity that carries though the long, penetrating finish.

Vinous (92-94)
Dark red. Restrained but pure aromas of blackberry, currant, minerals and spices, complicated by a whiff of fresh blood. Densely packed and layered, with lovely finesse and minerality for this cuvee. Finishes spicy, sweet and long, with considerable dusty tannins and a whiff of black licorice. This is balanced to offer early appeal but has the juicy concentration and backbone to age well.Inc. TAX€1,620.72 -
(12x75cl) 2012Vinous (92-94)
The 2012 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Champeaux is laced with tobacco, earthiness, smoke and dark red fruit. The Champeaux is intense and a bit sauvage, with tons of personality. There is nothing subtle here. A virile, imposing wine, the Champeaux is endowed with considerable power and structure, both of which suggest it will need time to fully come together.Inc. TAX€3,393.07 -
(6x75cl) 2016Wine Advocate (92-94)
The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Champeaux comes from a single parcel planted by Loic’s great-grandfather, the vines averaging 70 years old. Matured in new oak with 60% whole-cluster fruit, it has a more subdued bouquet than the Petite Chapelle, but it soon “warms up” to offer intense blackberry and bilberry scents infused with graphite and tobacco aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with thick-set tannin that are counterbalanced by the fine bead of acidity and impressive tension on the finish. This is a sterling follow-up to the impressive 2015 Champeaux from last year.Inc. TAX€2,122.54 -
Burghound (92-94)
Here the more expressive nose is quite floral and high-toned with its mélange of red currant, pomegranate and soft earth scents. Once again there is excellent mid-palate density to the sleek, intense and powerful flavors that flash fine detail and minerality on the mildly austere, complex and strikingly long finish. This is a classic Champeaux of power and grace though one that is also clearly constructed to age for years.Inc. TAX€1,405.68 -
Vinous (90-92)
(a blend of 50- and 90-year-old vines, according to Dugat; 80% vendange entier; this and the following 2013s are aging in 100% new barrels): Deep red with ruby tones. Blueberry, blackberry and licorice on the nose, along with a fresh note of menthol. Clearly tighter and more backward than the Evocelles; less minerally but more peppery. No shortage of power or thrust here. Finishes with a tougher tannic spine that will require patience.Inc. TAX€1,444.49 -

(only 40% vendange entier, as with the Charmes-Chambertin): Full ruby-red. Vibrant aromas and flavors of blackberry, violet, licorice pastille, bitter chocolate and wild mint.

Dugat noted that this wine started off hard but that the racking brought much more refinement.Inc. TAX€1,566.72 -

Aromas of wild berries, licorice, dark chocolate and espresso roast introduce the 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Petite Chapelle, a medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny wine that's elegantly integrated, rounded and gourmand, tightening up on the stony and vibrant finish. On the attack, this is reminiscent of a smaller-scaled version of the Domaine's Charmes-Chambertin, but the tangier, less expansive finish is quite distinct.Inc. TAX€2,118.72 -

The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Petite Chapelle confirms all the promise it showed from barrel and ranks among the highlights of this year's collection chez Dugat-Py. Bursting with aromas of cassis, blackberries, smoked meats, truffles and loamy soil, it's medium to full-bodied, velvety but incisive, simultaneously impressively concentrated and stimulatingly vibrant, concluding with a long and sapid finish.

Vinous (92-94)
The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Petite Chapelle 1er Cru was picked on the first day of harvest, along with the Charmes-Chambertin and Mazoyères. Containing 50% whole bunch, it is very perfumed on the nose, the most floral of Dugat-Py’s Premier Crus, but thankfully the gushing violet and peony aromas do not obscure the fruit expression. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, more understated than I anticipated after the aromatics. This ends up a streamlined Petite Chapelle of wonderful delineation and salinity (though maybe the Champeaux has a little more complexity overall at this early juncture). Not so Petite!Inc.

Bright, full ruby. Captivating aromas of cassis, game, mocha and brown spices. Sweet, concentrated and chewy, with powerful cassis and kirsch fruit flavors. Already displays wonderful inner-mouth aromatic character. Finishes with rather strong, slightly tough tannins that will require patience. This is quite impressive, but the 2000 version appears to have sweeter tannins.Inc. TAX€1,017.52

Bright, full ruby. Captivating aromas of cassis, game, mocha and brown spices. Sweet, concentrated and chewy, with powerful cassis and kirsch fruit flavors. Already displays wonderful inner-mouth aromatic character. Finishes with rather strong, slightly tough tannins that will require patience. This is quite impressive, but the 2000 version appears to have sweeter tannins.In Bond€840.00
