2021 in Burgundy was a challenging year due to adverse weather conditions, including frost and a cool, wet growing season. However, the skilled winemaking and careful vineyard management at Domaine Dujac typically result in high-quality wines even in less favorable years.
The 2021 Clos Saint-Denis is likely to offer complex aromas including dark berries (such as black cherry and blackberry), along with hints of spice, earthy undertones, and subtle floral notes. There may also be an elegant touch of oak or smoky nuances from barrel aging.
On the palate, the wine may display a rich, velvety texture with flavors of ripe red and dark fruits, including cherry, plum, and potentially some blackcurrant. Expect layers of complexity with additional notes of cocoa, forest floor, and fine-grained tannins. The acidity should be well-integrated, providing a balanced and refined structure.
While the 2021 Clos Saint-Denis can be enjoyed in its youth, its true potential will be realized with some aging. The wine should evolve beautifully over the next 10-20 years, developing additional layers of complexity and depth.
