The 2012 Chambertin Grand Cru from Domaine Rossignol-Trapet is a mature Grand Cru Burgundy Pinot Noir from the Côte de Nuits. It displays a glowing purple colour with an exceptionally pure, perfumed nose that highlights the ethereal nature of Chambertin. The palate is medium-bodied, showing precise, slightly tart dark red fruit, woodland aromas and a touch of liquorice, framed by fine acidity and supple tannins. This is an understated Chambertin, notable for its finesse and depth, with a complex, intriguing finish.
