Note di degustazione
This high altitude, infertile vineyard boasts vines that are 75 years old and yielded only 20hl/ha in 2005. Very seductive, striking, richly fruity nose reminiscent of those little black berries the French call myrtilles and hillside herbs. Powerful with rich, round fruit. It’s so silky that it’s difficult to see the (very fine) tannins. Extremely ripe fruit. (JR)

From 70-year-old vines in a stony, high-elevation site north of Champeaux come Dugat’s 150 cases worth of 20 hecto./ha. 2005 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Evocelles. This smells of ripe but bitter-sweet black cherry, wood smoke, and overt chalk and saline minerality. Coming onto the palate with superb fruit intensity, glycerine richness, and silkiness of texture, it finishes with the clarity, purity, refinement and freshness of fruit as well as the multiplicity of mineral shadings (salt, chalk, wet stone, iodine ... ?) that one anticipates from a great Riesling. (Despite Les Evocelles having been hailed on in 2004, this wine is one of Dugat’s more refined and juicy from that vintage.) Importer: Weygandt-Metzler, Unionville, PA; tel. (610) 486-0800.
Saturated ruby-red. Very ripe aromas of black fruits and smoked meat. Round, broad and fat; this really fills and coats the mouth with flavors of blackberry and chocolate. Offers a captivating wildness. Finishes with big, building, sweet tannins. Will it be vibrant enough for an outstanding rating?
