Chambertin Trapet 2009 is crafted from a selection of parcels totalling approximately 1.5 hectares, with about 50% new oak applied during maturation. The wine presents a balanced bouquet of red fruits, particularly red cherry, entwined with earthy notes of underbrush and subtle spice. On the palate, it reveals a firm structure marked by mineral undertones and a distinctly concentrated core. Notably, the Trapet family, producers in Gevrey-Chambertin since the 19th century, emphasise organic viticulture, steering the wine towards authenticity and expression of terroir. Patience is advised when enjoying this expression, as it evolves gradually.
