2021 Trapet Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru En Ergot
Located beneath Grand Cru Chapelle-Chambertin, adjacent to 1er Cru Petite Chapelle. Domaine Trapet is one of Burgundy's most historically significant producers, but now, with their seventh generation at helm, it seems like they're on a roll lately. Their Pinot Noirs are light on their feet, still finishing with alluring brown spices.The style here emphasizes aromatic clarity, refined tannins, wild red berries saturating the palate, and a persistent mineral drive. As much as the whole-cluster approach gives way to bursting fruit on the attack, the palate is lean and chiseled. Stems range from 20% to 50% from Village to Grand Crus. In all, wherever you taste in the hierarchy of cuvées, Trapet is among the greatest producers in the Côte de Nuits.
