Two thousand was an even riper vintage than '99, said Bernard Dugat. More important, he added, the wines are more harmonious, with more flesh to buffer the tannins. Dugat told me he picked early in 2000 to keep healthy acidity levels; still, grape sugars were mostly in the 12.4% to 12.8% range, and little chaptalization was needed. Like many of his colleagues who originally attracted attention by making big, dark, extracted wines, Dugat says he using "less and less technique today, less intervention in the cuverie " preferring instead to do more work in the vines. The 2000s here are muscular wines in the Dugat style, but not at all heavy.
