critic reviews
Tasted blind at the annual "Burgfest" tasting in Beaune. The 2012 Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru Aux Combottes from Domaine Dujac has a lot of reduction on the nose that made it difficult to discern the fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy, quite pronounced tannin. It is a broad-shouldered Combottes but the entire group found it difficult to penetrate through that reduction. I'll refrain from scoring now and wait several years, just like you should too.
The 2012 Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Combottes shows the pure power and intensity of the year in spades. Dark red stone fruits meld into expressive floral notes, but it is really the wine's energy, depth and textural finesse that stand out most. Readers can look forward to several decades of exceptional drinking.
