Decanter Magazine: 95 Points
This wine is the finest of the negociant offerings from Dujac — easily tops even the Chambolle. There is a marvellous forward blackberry and mulberry fruit aroma with a hint of exotic earth and game aromas. The texture is pure velvet, plump with extract and deliciously sweet fruit through the lingering finish. The grapes, sourced from a mid-slope plot near Vosne, are fermented mostly as whole clusters prior to ageing in cask to produce this excellent wine.
Burghound: 90-93 Points
Yet again there is a marked floral character to the nose of earthier dark berries and discreet sauvage nuances. The slightly bigger and richer flavors possess a highly seductive texture with even more evident minerality adding a sense of lift to the powerful and impressively persistent finish that is noticeably firmer.
Wine Advocate: 90-92 Points
Supple and perfumed, the 2022 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Aux Cras delivers aromas of plums, raw cocoa, vine smoke, orange rind and petals, followed by a medium to full-bodied, pure and seamless palate. This will offer a broad drinking window.
