About this Item
Domaine Trapet comprises of two estates – one in Alsace and the other in Burgundy. The Burgundy estate was formerly named Domaine Louis Trapet and is now run by Jean-Louis Trapet, the son of Jean, and his wife, Andrée Trapet. They have managed the domaine in Gevrey-Chambertin since 1990. It is one of the great historic estates of the Côte de Nuits, holding 16 hectares of biodynamically-farmed vineyards in Le Chambertin, Latricières-Chambertin and Chapelle-Chambertin. While known for their deep, concentrated Grands Crus, Trapet Père et Fils also produce Pinot Noirs from three Premier Cru and two village-level vineyards.
Gevrey-Chambertin Ostrea is a Premier Cru vineyard situated within the Gevrey-Chambertin appellation, renowned for producing wines of exceptional quality and complexity. The Ostrea vineyard is characterized by its limestone-rich soils, which contribute to the wines' depth, structure, and aging potential.

Critics Ratings
‘Light, comforting nose without too much precision, but good honest fruit. Pretty tough finish.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16/20 (Jan 2008)
‘Good medium red. Cassis and licorice on the nose; distinctly darker in character than the 2007. Dense and more classic than the 2007, with juicy flavors of dark berries, minerals and spices. Finishes with firm grip and very good length.’ - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous (March 2009)
