Dugat Py is a high class Domaine where impressive wine is made from seven hectares of mostly very old vines. The Dugat family have been growing wine in the Gevrey-Chambertin appellation since the beginning of the 17th century. They have five hectares of vineyards, including several Premier Cru and Grand Cru sites. The Domaine has been fully organic since 2003, and they practice as little intervention as possible. The wines are stylish and balanced, and age extremely age. Top wines are aged entirely in new oak.
From a .75 ha vineyard worked manually and with a horse that in 2009 yielded only 26 hl/ha; vinified with 80% stems.
Again, the fruit is very ripe but with a completely different profile as the wild red and black fruit aromas are intensely earthy and animale in character. The rich, dense and serious medium-bodied flavors are supple on the mid-palate but firm up quickly on the almost aggressively mineral-infused finish. A magnificent villages that should age well though will need a lot of cellar time. Drink 2021+
