The 2008 Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Combottes dazzles for its vibrant red fruit. Sweet floral, spiced notes add complexity as the wine opens up in the glass. This is a totally impeccable, harmonious Burgundy with tons of Gevrey character. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2026.
This is a beautiful set of wines from Dujac. The harvest started on September 10 and ended on the 17th. Jeremy Seysses told me he wanted to pick on the early side in order to preserve freshness. In a similar vein, Seysses kept the fermentations short and gentle to avoid over-extracting. I also tasted a handful of 2008s, which are beautiful wines that are true to type and site. In 2008 the estate finished its conversion to fully organic farming originally started in 2001. Dujac fans have a lot to look forward to in these two vintages.
