Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos Prieur Domaine Trapet
Information
About the producer

Jean-Louis Trapet is an articulate man, at peace in a world where "men are mere mortals". And since wine is all about sharing and transmission, his great-great-grandfather's legacy, founded in 1870, has been kept alive.
Today he takes care of 15 hectares of vineyard, among the best-located in Gevrey. He is merely the custodian of this treasure: three grands crus (Chambertin, Chapelle-Chambertin and Latricières-Chambertin), two premiers crus (Petite Chapelle and Clos Prieur), Marsannay and Bourgogne.
Since 1995 the entire domain uses biodynamics: free of any harsh practices in the vineyard as well as in the cellars, which respects the natural balance of the wine. This approach is above all based on observation: to protect the vines while monitoring their growth and development. Maturating is a decisive stage at the Trapet domain: once the vinification is finished (with minimum intervention), the wines are taken down to the cellar and put in barrels to mature slowly over the winter months at their own speed.

About the wine

More than 800 years ago, an individual by the name of Bertin fortuitously decided to take his cue from the neighbouring monks and plant a field of vines: and thus, from the thirteenth century onwards, emerged the shape of the wood of the "Field (champ) of Bertin", a magnificent terroir that many subsequent owners would go on to shape over the centuries. This Gevrey from Trapet perfectly illustrates all the domaine's know-how. It is a clean, elegant, full-bodied wine. It will be ready for drinking after 3-10 years' aging.
