Rated 92-94/100 Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

2012 Dugat-Py Charmes Chambertin Grand Cru....$719.99
Another dark, mysterious wine, the 2012 Charmes-Chambertin is laced with dark red plum, smoke, incense and savory/floral notes. The flavors are rich, round and layered, adding to a sense of simply impeccable balance and pure texture. -- Antonio Galloni
Rated 94-96/100 Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media


2012 Dugat-Py Vosne Romanee V.V....$215.99
The 2012 Vosne-Romanée jumps from the glass with dark red cherry, plum, spice and iron. Today, the 2012 is a bit reduced, but not enough to detract from the wine's considerable appeal. The style is rich, textured very much on the intense side at the villages level. I imagine the 2012 will still be an impressive wine at age twenty. -- Antonio Galloni
Rated 90-92/100 Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media
