The Authentic Expression of a Great White Burgundy by Domaine Dujac

The Estate

Founded in 1968 by Jacques Seysses, Domaine Dujac is located in Morey-Saint-Denis, in the heart of Burgundy. A pioneer in the expression of terroir, the estate stands out for its environmentally respectful approach, incorporating organic and biodynamic practices to enhance each cuvée. Today, the estate is run by the new generation, who continue this exceptional expertise.

The Vineyard

The grapes come from carefully selected plots within the Morey-Saint-Denis appellation. The clay-limestone soils give this white wine a distinctive minerality and beautiful depth. The vineyard work is particularly meticulous, with regular ploughing and deliberately limited yields to ensure optimal quality.

The Vintage

The year 2022 was marked by a hot, dry summer season. These weather conditions favoured excellent ripeness of the white grapes, while preserving lovely freshness thanks to harvesting carried out at the right moment.

Winemaking and Aging

Winemaking is carried out with great precision to preserve the brightness of the fruit. Aging takes place in oak barrels, with a measured proportion of new wood, adding complexity and depth to the wine without masking its terroir identity.

Grape Variety

Chardonnay (100%).
