The 2009 Monts Luisants Blanc is a beautifully expressive and richly textured wine that reflects both the warmth of the vintage and the high-altitude finesse of this singular Premier Cru. Aromas of ripe pear, white peach, lemon curd, and acacia blossom rise from the glass, intertwined with notes of hazelnut, subtle spice, and crushed limestone. On the palate, the wine is generous yet finely balanced, offering a silky, expansive texture energized by a persistent mineral backbone and refreshing acidity. Layers of orchard fruit, citrus, and gentle toasty nuances unfold with poise, leading into a long, harmonious finish marked by clarity and understated power. Now fully mature, the 2009 Monts Luisants shows Dujac’s hallmark elegance—an expressive, beautifully evolved white Burgundy from one of the Côte de Nuits’ most unique terroirs.
Domaine Dujac is one of Burgundy’s most celebrated and influential domaines, renowned for its meticulous craftsmanship and its ability to express terroir with precision, depth, and elegance. While best known for its iconic red wines, Dujac also produces highly distinctive whites from select parcels—including Monts Luisants, a rare and historic Premier Cru site in Morey-St-Denis. Perched high on the slope with cool exposures and limestone-rich soils, Monts Luisants yields Chardonnay of striking minerality, lift, and tension. Under the Seysses family’s careful stewardship—organic farming, gentle extraction, restrained oak, and a philosophy rooted in purity—Dujac’s whites achieve a level of refinement and vibrancy that mirrors the estate’s legendary reds, offering clarity, nuance, and a profound sense of place.
