About this wine
Character
The Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru 2021 puts finesse before power: 13.0% vol., dry, silky texture, fine-grained tannin. The cool 2021 vintage gave it a vibrant acidity and a precision that reward patience in the cellar.
Terroir and origin
The site borders the Chambertin to the south, on the mid-slope of Gevrey-Chambertin. Calcareous oolite and red clay over solid limestone bedrock lend spice and mineral tension, while the south-east exposure ensures even ripening. Latricières-Chambertin is one of the three Grand Cru sites at the heart of Domaine Trapet's 18.5 hectares.
Grape variety and winemaking
Hand-harvested Pinot Noir. Jean-Louis Trapet, seventh generation, has farmed biodynamically since 1996; he ferments the Grand Crus with 50 to 100 percent whole clusters, keeps new oak to at most 50 percent, and works by gravity in the cellar. His principle: guide, never force.
On the palate
Cherry and raspberry, along with violet, undergrowth and fine spice. The acidity carries the wine, the tannin stays fine-grained, and the finish is long and mineral.
Food pairings
Roast pigeon, wild duck or saddle of venison with wild mushrooms, as well as partridge or pheasant from the oven and bœuf bourguignon. To finish, mature Époisses or Comté.
Notable features
In the 1880s, Arthur Trapet secretly grafted his vines onto American rootstock, then forbidden and legalized in 1888. The Guide des meilleurs vins de France awards the domaine three stars, its highest rating.
