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.
Latricières-Chambertin is a prestigious Grand Cru vineyard situated within the commune of Gevrey-Chambertin. It is renowned for its complex soils, which include limestone, marl, and clay, contributing to the wines' depth, structure, and complexity. Latricières-Chambertin wines are prized for their elegance, finesse, and aging potential.

Critics Ratings
‘Red-ruby. Black raspberry, coffee, smoke, animal fur and an intriguing vegetal nuance. Juicy and firm, with more thoroughly integrated acidity and terrific richness and depth of flavor. This is quite dense and shapely. Finishes very strong and persistent.’ - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, 92/100 (March 2000)
