Charmes Chambertin 2009 75cl

Domaine Dujac has somewhat recent beginnings, with a history only dating back to the late 1960s. A then young Jacques Seysses came to Burgundy from a non-wine background. His father was a wealthy businessman who had a biscuit company and was a true bon vivant and gourmand. Following a stint in banking and then the biscuit business, Jacques headed off to Burgundy to learn about wine. They found a rundown domaine in Morey-Saint-Denis (Domaine Graillet), bought it and named the property after himself. The domaine quickly attained a high reputation and over the years, Jacques slowly gave the estate to his three sons - Jeremy, Alec and Paul. Today, they have over 15 hectares of vines that are dispersed over 16 appellations, producing both white and red. In 2000, Jeremy, the eldest of the three children, started a small négociant business called Dujac Fils & Père. They have also been part owners of Triennes, a Provençal estate producing rosé, red and white wines since 1990.
