Domaine Dujac was founded in 1968 by Jacques Seysses, who, although not born in Burgundy, discovered his true calling in winemaking. Influenced by his father's love for fine wine, he decided to leave the family biscuit business and apprentice with Gérard Potel at Domaine de la Pousse d'Or. In 1968, he acquired Domaine Graillet in Morey-Saint-Denis and renamed it Domaine Dujac. Together with his wife Rosalind, who became an integral part of the winery, he expanded the vineyards and laid the foundations for a family tradition. The next generation took over in the late 1990s, with their son Jeremy joining the winery in 1998, his wife Diana in 2001, and his brother Alec in 2003.
Emphasizing sustainability, they achieved organic farming certification in 2011 and introduced biodynamic practices. Under their management, the estate expanded to 15.5 hectares in 2005 and further expanded to Puligny-Montrachet in 2014, securing a presence in both Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune.
Domaine Dujac prioritizes the health of its vineyards, believing that exceptional wine starts from the vine. It employs organic and biodynamic methods to maintain the balance of the terroir, avoiding chemical interventions and promoting biodiversity. In the cellar, it applies a minimal intervention approach, aiming to preserve the natural characteristics of the grapes. Its wines stand out for their balance, elegance, and purity, reflecting both the vintage and the unique terroir from which they originate.
The red wine from Morey-Saint-Denis comes from 6 plots at the foot of the slope, west of the road (RD 974), and east of the village of Morey-Saint-Denis, where the slope is slight (3%). The plots range in altitude from 249 to 264 meters, facing northeast to due south. The loamy soil is less stony than higher upslope, with patches of Comblanchien limestone fragments in some parts. The Pinot Noir variety gives exceptional results in this terroir, a fact that is perfectly captured in the wine.

Les Combottes, a lieu-dit south of the village of Gevrey-Chambertin, lies halfway up the hill, just below the steep incline of Les Monts Luisants, in a steeply sloping area (5–6%).
