2005 Domaine Dujac Chambertin Grand Cru (1.5L)

"The Chambertin Grand Cru lies between the village of Morey-Saint-Denis to the south and Gevrey-Chambertin to the north, mid-slope, but at the upper limit for winegrowing on this hillside. The slope is steep (more than 5%). The plot ranges in altitude from 273 to 302 meters. The lieu-dit faces east-southeast. The soil changes from east to west. In the eastern part, the reddish-brown soil is about 40 to 50 cm thick, with many blunt crinoidal limestone fragments (calcaire à Entroques). In the central part, the soil is less stony, with small oyster shells in patches. In the western part, the soil contains angular-to-blunt Premeaux limestone fragments. Two types of substratum underlie the Clos de Bèze. In the eastern part, ocher limestone rich in debris from marine organisms (calcaire à Entroques) crops out in places, because a former quarry once existed in this Grand Cru. In the western part, fine-grained light-colored Premeaux limestone, containing flint-like chert nodules (chailles)." - Vineyard Notes
