1998 Dujac Clos Saint Denis

27 Dec 2011: Deep ruby core. Best with 1.5 hours of decanting. A most enchanting perfume of violet, black cherry and plum, with earthy, forest floor and Asian spices. Beautiful and pure ripe pinot fruit on entry, leading to a velvety texture, framing the ripe and firm tannin and lowish acidity. I love the very rounded and substantial mouthfeel and understated elegance. Drinking well now and for next 10 - 12+ years. 18/20
