Loïc, 13th generation winemaker at the venerable Dugat-Py domaine, has shown great skill in his winemaking ability. The wines of Dugat-Py are as powerful and brooding as ever, and at once floral and earthy.

All plantings are selection massale, using their best old fruit to replant. The vineyards are tended like a garden, with biodynamic teas prepared in-house and no trimming of the canopy. Organic vineyard management since 2003. No pre-fermentation maceration (cold soak) is done on any wines, just raw material, without any additives or correction. Traditional fermentation. Aged 12 to 18 months in oak barrels of which 10% new. Wines are unfiltered and unfined.

This is a village level wine from 50-year-old vines, and an exceptional bottling from one of the most coveted producers in the Côte de Nuits. The 2022 vintage will age well for decades to come.
