About this wine
Character
A dry Pinot Noir at 13.0% ABV that draws its impact from finesse rather than power: aromatic depth, fine-grained tannin, terroir transparency. The 1500 ml Magnum format allows it to mature more slowly and evenly, and it is built for long-term ageing.
Terroir and origin
The Chambertin vineyard lies in Gevrey-Chambertin, where Trapet Père & Fils farms just under two hectares across three parcels, some with century-old vines. The soil of limestone-rich clay and oolite on the east-facing slope gives the wine its mineral tension. The 2023 vintage in Burgundy was warm with early ripening, but careful hand harvesting still delivered fresh fruit.
Grape variety and vinification
Pinot Noir. Jean-Louis Trapet, seventh generation, has farmed biodynamically since 1996, following the principle of guiding the grapes rather than forcing them. In the cellar, he ferments the Grand Crus with 50 to 100 percent whole clusters, new oak stays at a maximum of 50 percent, and movement is by gravity.
On the palate
Silky and multilayered, with dark cherry, raspberry and violet, alongside forest floor, cinnamon and clove. The tannin is fine-grained, the acidity vibrant, the finish long and mineral.
Food pairings
Partridge or roast pheasant, bœuf bourguignon, a mature Époisses. After a few more years of bottle age, also a simple roast veal with morels.
Special features
In the 1880s, Arthur Trapet secretly grafted vines onto American rootstock, forbidden at the time and made legal from 1888. Seven generations later, Jean-Louis Trapet runs the estate, with 18.5 hectares and three Grand Crus. His credo: "Les hommes passent et la terre reste."
