"The old vines in the Domaine Dujac parcel of Combottes have really produced a magical wine in 2014, and happily, this wine was absolutely singing at the time of my visit. The deep, pure and utterly superb nose jumps from the glass in a blend of cherries, red plums, gamebird, woodsmoke, coffee, vanillin oak and a stunningly precise base of soil tones. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and very, very transparent this year, with a great sappy core of fruit, exceptionally suave structural elements, bright acids and a very, very long, nascently complex and energetic finish. A great, great vintage for Combottes!"

The Cote de Nuits' largest Grand Cru commune, producing powerful, structured and deeply flavored Pinot Noir built for long aging.
2014 in Burgundy is a benchmark white vintage, tense, fresh and mineral, though Cote de Beaune hail cut yields; the reds are balanced and classically proportioned, with good freshness and medium-term aging potential.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
