----I'm visiting one of the premier/ wine producers in Burgundy. Domaine Dujac makes a Grand Cru and a Premier Cru wine, simply put, they are the best of the best.
“so what we are probably going to do here is …what we call a green harvest.”
I spoke with Jeremy Sice about Dujac's world-class wines. Right here, I want to divide between Morey-Saint-Denis and Gevrey-Chambertin, two different villages, but also between a Grand Cru and a Premier Cru. The Premier Cru is lower in the order of classification. The Grand Cru is that at the top of the Burgundian pyramid. But now, Jeremy, this vine right here is what? 18, 20 feet away from this vine here? yeah, that's Grand, this is Premier。
What does that mean?
You have to look at the whole parcel. This one is ...is...really in the mid slope that you can see the slope is very even, through out and better. If you look at the Premier/ Cru in contrast, you can see that the slope is much less even, there is a dip-down there where water tends to accumulate a tiny bit more, which is not necessarily good, which is not necessarily a good thing.
The perfect lay of the land is reflected in the taste than the price of the wine, and well, it may just take me several tries to taste those subtle differences.
