That feeling you get when you open a wine that is in just the right spot…
From our perspective, that is where this Bernard Dugat-Py is at right in this very moment. It has a beautiful balance of fresh black cherry, red currant, kirsch, violet, hibiscus tea, and anise next to clove, cardamom, forest floor, peat moss, fig paste, and mushroom notes.
The palate is singing with bright acidity balanced by the expressive aromas and flavors, medium, fine-grained tannins, and medium alcohol (13% ABV). It has a lingering finish. What a beautiful wine!
It is the 2010 Dugat-Py Gevrey-Chambertin “Cuvée Coeur de Roy” Très Vieilles Vignes, coming from very old, organically-farmed, and low-yielding vines, adding to the concentration of aromas and flavors. It comes from the village of Gevrey-Chambertin in the Côte de Nuits. — 16 days ago

100% Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Dark red/purple color. Beautiful aromas of black cherry/currant, black tea and leather. Fruit forward palate features black cherry, blackberry, blueberry, dark chocolate, black licorice and Asian spices. Perfect touch of smoky vanilla and minerals on the long and lingering finish. Powerful, complex and rich, but in perfect harmony. Nicely integrated tannins and beautifully structured. Thank you Petey P. for sharing this incredible bottle. — 4 months ago
