Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Champeaux Dugat-Py Very old vines 2016

The wine

En Champeaux is a remarkable premier cru from the commune of Gevrey. Domaine Dugat-Py gives us a brilliant interpretation, with superb body and noble, honeyed fruit. The finish is elegant, with morello cherry accompanied by refined mineral notes.

About the Producer Dugat-Py

A true genius when it comes to vinification, Bernard Dugat acquired his first parcel in 1973, when he was only 15! Gradually, the domain grew through successive purchases of grand crus, mostly in Charmes-Chambertin and Mazis-Chambertin, but also in the village and regional appellations. The wines truly reflect the Gevrey terroir. Above all, the aim is to allow the terroir to express itself. Yields are limited in order to maximise concentration; a traditional and careful maturing in barrels (between 50 to 100% new oak) is carried out for 14 to 18 months.
