Trapet

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.
