Starting with the 2000 vintage, Jeremy Seysses set up a negociant business with his father Jacques in order to make attractive and well-priced wine from their own village Morey-St. Denis, supplemented by a wine each from Gevrey-Chambertin and Chambolle-Musigny. The involvement of Jeremy at the Domaine has encouraged a gentle evolution in style, though the core Dujac principles of elegance and intensity remain firmly in place. The wines retain their characteristic smokiness in youth which develops into an ethereal leafy quality with age. An excellent source for good value Burgundy. These wines are generally ready to drink a bit earlier than the wines from the Domaine.
Rich dark purple with super-expressive ripe raspberry fruit, no sign of over-ripeness on the nose. There is a thickness of texture – tiny yields here, barely double figures – and notable tannins. Rich fruit returns at the finish.
