Persoonlijke gegevens
According to specialists, one of the 100 most beautiful wines in the world and the Domaine Trapet Chambertin Grand Cru is the best-known Grand Cru parcel of Gevrey-Chambertin. Domaine Trapet has more than 1.90 hectares of vines, the oldest plantings of which date from 1919. The wine has received a special mention of 20/20 in the Revue des Vins de France and therefore has a grand, evocative name. Chambertin was once the wine of the court of the royal families and even today this impressive wine is spoken with awe.
From plots located exclusively in lieu-dit En la Chapelle, Trapet's 2018 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru offers an inviting bouquet of cassis, plums, dark chocolate and tantalizing spices, framed by a refined touch of toasted new oak. Medium to full bodied, this wine is deep, layered and fine in structure, built around elegantly chalky tannins enveloped by a vibrant core of fruit.
FACT: The wine is in our conditioned Wine Warehouse and if you pick up the wine you will often receive a nice discount . You will see your discount immediately when you choose 'Collect' on the checkout page. We are located in Dordrecht almost next to the A16 with plenty of parking. Click here for our address.
About Chapelle-Chambertin
Chapelle-Chambertin takes its name from a chapel originally built around 1155 AD by the monks of Bèze Abbey. Although the chapel itself was destroyed during the French Revolution, the vineyard continues to produce world-class wines. Chapelle-Chambertin is one of nine Grand Cru vineyards located along "La Route des Grands Crus" in the Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, and only approximately 2,000 cases of Pinot Noir wines are produced annually from this location. Due to limited production, the wines are not easy to find. If you get your hands on one, you can expect the lightest style of all Grands Crus—with notes of red cherry, purple flowers and delicate, but still noticeable tannins. Don't let their delicate nature keep you from storing these wines—they will keep for 10 to 20 years.

Hierdoor sluit hij uitstekend aan bij rundvlees, lam, charcuterie en kaas: de tannines snijden door rijke vetten en versterken hartige smaken, terwijl het rijpe fruit mooi contrasteert met gezouten en gerookte elementen; denk aan gegrild entrecote of een langzaam gestoofd sukade, geroosterd lamsrack of lamsbout, een selectie stevige charcuterie met cornichons en mosterd, en bij kazen vooral gerijpte, notige of licht pijpende soorten die de complexiteit van de wijn evenaren. |

From holdings located exclusively in lieu-dit En la Chapelle, Trapet's 2018 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru offers up an inviting bouquet of cassis, plums, dark chocolate and pungent spices, framed by a deft touch of toasty new oak. Medium to full-bodied, it's deep, layered and fine-boned, built around elegantly chalky tannins that are cloaked in a lively core of fruit.
The 2018 vintage has turned out brilliantly at this Gevrey-Chambertin benchmark, an estate that seems to go from strength to strength. Jean-Louis Trapet began picking on September 5 and retained a considerable proportion of whole clusters for vinification, reporting alcohol levels for the most part between 13% and 13.5%. Yields, he told me, were limited by the domaine's high percentage of old vines. Deep, concentrated and exquisitely elegant, this is a remarkably consistent range in both style and quality, and while they bear the imprint of the vintage, they're not dominated by it. Everything reviewed here comes warmly recommended.

From: Dealing with the New Paradigm: Burgundy 2018 (Nov 2022)
The 2018 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru has an engaging bouquet, a mixture of red and black fruit, showing the most marine influences (oyster shells and kelp ) that impart complexity. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine, pliant tannins. Harmonious, not powerful, quite elegant in style with a persistent finish. This is a classy and quite intellectual proposition. Excellent. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting.

Domaine Trapet was founded in 1870 and is now six generations strong. This family business owns more than 18.5 hectares of vineyards, mainly located in the prestigious regions of Gevrey-Chambertin and Marsannay. Recently, another 2.10 hectares of vineyards in the Côte de Beaune have been added. The estate has four hectares on three of the nine Grand Cru plots in Gevrey-Chambertin: Chambertin, Chapelle-Chambertin and Latricières-Chambertin.
Today, the estate is run by Jean-Louis Trapet, a winemaker who speaks almost philosophically about his wines. At the end of the 90s, Jean-Louis decided to experiment with biodynamic viticulture, a choice that has influenced the entire estate since 1997. This approach eventually resulted in certifications from Biodyvin and Demeter. For Jean-Louis Trapet, biodynamic viticulture is both a response to current climate change and a way of living his philosophy: to "accompany, but never force" the grapes.
Trapet's wines are known for their accessibility and distinct character. They are complex and sophisticated, with an admirably long finish. The balance between fruit, minerality, fresh acidity and soft tannins is unforgettable. Trapet succeeds in letting the terroir speak, with each wine telling its own story.
