Persoonlijke gegevens
Domaine Trapet's 2018 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru is a magical wine in the making and is considered a more elegant, structurally refined version of Trapet's 1999 Latricières. Aromas of cherries, cassis, dark chocolate, pine trees and rose petals rise from the glass. The wine is full-bodied, velvety and layered, with a sharp backbone of acidity, lively acidity and great concentration, ending with a long finish.
The term “Latricières” was used to describe land that is unsuitable for crops and offers little to no value, and yet this Grand Cru vineyard is known for producing some of the most iconic Pinot Noir red wines in the world. In fact, as far back as the Middle Ages, locals called the wines from here “petite merveille” or “little wonders.”
The Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru is located at the western end of the “Route des Grands Crus”—a country road that runs parallel to the D974 (formerly known as RN74) in the Gevrey-Chambertin region of the Côte de Nuits. The vines are planted on rocky marl soils, the same as those of the famous neighbors Chambertin and Chambertin-Clos de Bèze. A producer that sets a particularly high standard for this area is cult winery Domaine Leroy and Domaine Trapet.

The 2018 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru is a magical wine in the making, and readers might think of it as a more elegant, structurally refined version of Trapet's 1999 Latricières. Wafting from the glass with notes of cherries, cassis, dark chocolate, coniferous forest floor and rose petals, it's full-bodied, velvety and layered, with an incisive spine of acidity, lively acids and terrific concentration, concluding with a long, resonant finish. This is worth a special effort to seek out.
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: La Lumière Noire: 2019 Burgundy - Côte de Nuits (Dec 2020)
The 2018 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru has an outstanding bouquet of vibrant black cherry and boysenberry fruit suffused with minerals. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red berry fruit on the entry, maybe just a little closed after bottling at the moment, but demonstrating good grip and a strong marine influence on the finish. Give this 3–4 years in bottle.
- By Neal Martin on October 2020
Brothers Nicolas and David Rossignol guided me through their 2019s and a handful of bottled of 2018s when I visited their winery in Gevrey-Chambertin opposite Denis Bachelet. “There was less vine stress than last year thanks to the clayey soils,” David Rossignol explained. “I started the harvest on 17 September and finished on 24 September. The harvest was smaller than 2018 but normal, around 40 to 42hl/ha. There was good ripeness and we used around 50% whole bunches across the range, without crushing the berries. Alcohol levels are around 13.8° to 13.9°.”
The Rossignol-Trapet wines tend to be a little lighter than others. The Rossignol brothers often use the word “infusion” when it comes to the skin maceration. They are not seeking density or power, rather terroir expression, which is why they use the same level of whole bunches in every cru. That can be a noble exercise in terms of taking the winemaker’s decision out of the equation when comparing vineyards, though it risks adding a disproportionate amount of stems, either too much or too little. I do not find that they had that problem in 2019 – no cuvée felt excessively green. Their best 2019 is their sublime Chapelle-Chambertin that pips the Chambertin, whereas their Latricières missed a bit of density. That might develop during the remainder of its barrel maturation so let’s see how it shows next year. In any case, there are wines worthy of investigation at Premier and Village level, yet another great Gevrey Petite Chapelle and a very fine Corbeaux.

From: 2018 Burgundy: Confounded Expectations (Jan 2020)
The 2018 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru, matured in 40–50% new oak, offers pretty dark cherry, wild strawberry and undergrowth scents on the nose; a light marine scent emerges with time in the glass, along with a touch of licorice. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, well-judged acidity and good density, and it maintains a sense of control all the way through. Quite linear on the finish but displays lovely sapidity on the aftertaste. Excellent.
- By Neal Martin on November 2019
Rossignol-Trapet is a domaine that is starting to step up a few gears in recent years. Their wines have performed impressively during the annual Burgfest blind tastings, a perfect litmus test to see who’s really doing the business inside the bottle. I met with brothers Nicolas and David Rossignol who gave me the lowdown on the growing season. "We started the harvest on 4 September until 12 September, commencing in Beaune and then through the Gevrey appellation, finishing with the Latricières-Chambertin. We used around 40-50% whole bunch except for the Bourgogne Rouge, the stems helping to add freshness and longevity. The wines underwent a two week cuvaison, the colour coming easily. There were some cuvées that took a while to finish their alcoholic fermentation, though they all eventually ended with zero sugar. The premier crus are all raised in around 25% new oak, the village crus will be bottled in February, the premier crus in March and the grand crus in April. I think it is a good idea to have a good length of élevage."

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.
