Domaine Claude Dugat Lavaux-Saint-Jacques 1er Cru 2019 sku_2188305 with refreshing notes of citrusThis is suffused with very intense tertiary, sauvage aromas of dark fruits, smoked meats, forest floor and horse saddle. The palate is very full bodied and endowed with massive tannins that you can literally chew on. Mouthfeel is not dissimilar to a massive scaled Barolo. Dugat wines are known to be a mouthful.
