Description

Product description for Trapet Père & Fils Chambertin Grand Cru 2021 (bio)

Jean-Louis Trapet, the man who runs one of Burgundy’s most sought-after wineries, remains a true vigneron to this day. He is someone who puts his passion for Pinot Noir into the vineyard with all his energy. Founded in 1870, Domaine Trapet today owns twelve hectares, including several plots of partly ancient vines in the Grands Crus La Chapelle, Les Latricières, and – since 1919 – Le Chambertin. Le Chambertin is the house’s undisputed flagship and, in its prime, the perfect expression of the terroir, or better – as the British like to say – the sense of place. Jean-Louis Trapet and his wife Andrée turned to biodynamic farming in the mid-1990s. The many, always carefully considered steps that went with this have transformed the domaine into one of the leading wineries in Burgundy, especially in Gevrey-Chambertin.

Wine Advocate

Score: (93-95)

The 2021 Chambertin Grand Cru wafts from the glass with aromas of dark cherries and mulberries mingled with notions of forest floor, vine smoke, dark chocolate and spices. Full-bodied, layered and velvety, it’s deep and complete, with rich, powdery tannins, lively acids and a long, resonant finish. It’s the cuvée that incorporates the highest percentage of whole bunch in the range this year.

Score: (96-98)

The 2021 Chambertin Grand Cru includes 60% whole clusters. This has a typically regal bouquet with a mixture of red and black fruit, loam, crushed stone and spicebox. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, wonderful depth, great intensity and vibrancy with a long and persistent finish. This simply builds and builds unlike the Chapelle-Chambertin, a magnificent 2021. _x000D_
