Description / Reviews

"Situated on the slope to the north of the village of Puligny-Montrachet, the premier cru Les Combettes neighbors the appellation of Meursault. The altitude varies from 246 to 264 meters, with an average gradient of 9% and the parcel is facing southeast. 

The soil contains angular stones of light-colored limestone. The soil is 50 centimeters thick and is rich in silt, sand and clay. 

The Dujac parcel lies on the “Pierre de Chassagne,” or “Stone of Chassagne,” a very light and hard limestone that has been used for centuries as a stone for building as well as for a marble quarry in the neighboring village of Chassagne-Montrachet. " - Domaine Dujac, Winemaker

"Here the wood treatment surrounding the even more floral-suffused aromas of just sliced apple and poached pear is slightly more prominent. The medium weight flavors aren't as concentrated but they're finer with a subtle minerality adding a sense of lift to the balanced, dry and mildly more persistent finale. As Combettes almost always is, this is a wine of class and finesse." - 91-93 Points, Allen Meadows, Burghound
