The plot varies in altitude from 284 to 309 meters. The lieu-dit faces east-southeast. The soil changes from east to west. The reddish-brown soil in the eastern part is 40 to 50 cm thick, with some angular-to-rounded limestone fragments. Upslope, in the western part of this Grand Cru plot, the soil is richer in fine angular limestone gravel. Two different substrata underlie the Clos Saint-Denis. To the east, the substratum is a fine light-colored limestone, occasionally containing flint-like chert nodules (chailles). This Premeaux limestone, crops out in beds tens of centimeters thick. To the west, where the slope is steeper, a thin layer of Comblanchien limestone scree in the form of fine angular gravel partly covers the slope.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eClassification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrand Cru\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDrinking Window\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2028-2060\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAgeing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wines will spend 14 to 18 months in oak barrels.

Only indigenous yeasts are used to preserve the authentic origin of the wines. Fermentation lasts about two weeks with some light punching down at the start, then pumping over for a smoother extraction towards the end of fermentation. The main concern is the balance between firmness and suppleness for the tannins. After being lightly pressed in a pneumatic press, the wines are transferred to the cellar by gravity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Dujac","offers":[{"title":"Bottle (750 ml)","offer_id":67409165418669,"sku":"24-DUJAC-20105RR","price":775.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0556\/8829\/8669\/files\/Domaine_DUJAC_Clos_Saint_Denis_Grand_Cru.jpg?v=1759867220","url":"https:\/\/symbolicwines.com\/products\/domaine-dujac-clos-saint-denis-grand-cru-2024","provider":"Symbolic Wines®","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
