Domaine Dugat-Py Gevrey-Chambertin Petite Chapelle Premier Cru Vieilles Vignes 2021

Domaine Dugat-Py Gevrey-Chambertin Petite Chapelle Premier Cru Vieilles Vignes 2021 is a highly elite, deeply concentrated Premier Cru that performs with the scale and density of a Grand Cru. Sourced from a tiny 0.32-hectare parcel of old vines planted in 1964, this wine highlights the cooler, highly elegant nature of the 2021 Burgundy vintage. In the glass, it reveals a bright, translucent ruby profile. The sophisticated bouquet wafts with intense aromas of sweet red berries, wild plums, licorice, and herbal tea, seamlessly integrated with beautiful floral elements and warm exotic spices. On the palate, it is medium-to-full-bodied, layered, and deeply penetrating. The core of succulent fruit is supported by rich, powdery tannins and a lively line of acidity, delivering excellent structural tension and a long, savory, and fragrant finish built for cellaring.

Food Pairing: Roasted duck breast, pan-seared squab, wild mushroom tart, or slow-cooked venison.
