Dujac's 2011s capture the essence of the vintage. At the entry-level, the wines often lack depth and show elements of greenness, while at the top end, the wines are simply thrilling. And that is 2011 in a nutshell. Lesser sites struggled to ripen, while the best vineyards have a way of pulling through, even in challenging vintages. Jeremy Seysses opted to use about 70% whole clusters in 2011, although some wines, including the Gruenchers, Échézeaux and Romanée-Saint Vivant, were done entirely with whole clusters. I tasted all of the 2011s from bottle in November 2013, with exception of the Chambolle villages and Échézeaux. For those two wines, these notes are from barrel tastings in November 2012.

Domaine Dujac began picking grapes on September 1, said Jeremy Seysses, but the estate's typical vineyard enjoyed a longer-than-average 110 days between the flowering and the harvest. Potential alcohol levels were in the 11.5% to 12% range, he told me, and following modest chaptalization, the finished 2011s will be about a half degree lower than normal for this domain (typically, Dujac's village wines weigh in at about 12.5%, the premier crus 13% and the grand crus 13.5%)."You can't compare 2011 to any other vintage," said Seysses."In 2007, there was never any heat, so the tannins didn't really develop.In 2011, the tannins are good and the acidity is bright; the flavors are more dark fruits than red."Interestingly, Seysses told me that the grapes offered more phenolic ripeness in 2011 than in 2010."But there are a lot of contradictions with this vintage, such as an herbal character with black fruits, and long hang time with low alcohol."Most of the 2011s were vinified with at least 80% whole clusters.With the exception of the Chambolle-Musigny Les Gruenchers, none of the wines had been racked at the time of my November tasting.
