Trapet Pere et Fils
About Trape Père et Fils
The Domaine was founded by Louis Trapet in 1870, who hailed from Southeastern France and chose to settle in Gevrey-Chambertin during the French Revolution. He gradually acquired prime vineyards in the appellation and by the 1920s, had become one of Burgundy’s most important vineyard owners. Fruit from their vineyards was regularly sold to top négociants such as Leroy, Drouhin and Liger-Belair and the Domaine only bottled their first wine with the 1959 vintage.
In 1990, the Domaine underwent a split, with Domaine Rossignol-Trapet managed by Nicolas and David Rossignol while the original Domaine became known as Domaine Trapet Père et Fils, currently managed by the fifth generation of the family, Jean-Louis Trapet.

Vinous (95-97)The 2021 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru, the first Grand Cru to be picked with 50% whole clusters, has a fragrant, pure and (unlike Latricières) inviting bouquet that just wants to seduce. Very sensual. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins that frame the crystalline red fruit, supreme mineralité with one of the most elegant finishes you will find in this vintage. Reminiscent of Dugat's Chapelle-Chambertin, this is divine. |

Vinous (90-92)(the yield here was just 15 hectoliters per hectare, according to Jean-Louis Trapet): Good bright medium red. Deeper on the nose than the preceding village wines, offering aromas of plum, currant, roast coffee and cocoa. Graceful, fine-grained wine, offering very good depth, intriguing saline minerality and noteworthy precision. More floral than herbal. The persistent finish features a subtle sweetness and suave tannins that saturate the sides of the tongue. This will be Trapet's only premier cru bottling from the 2016 vintage. |

Strong, sappy and ripe but not at all overly sweet; less expressive today than the Chapelle owing to its very firm mineral core but this slightly sauvage wine should be superb with five or six years of bottle aging.

Wafting from the glass with scents of cassis, dark berries, peonies, raw cocoa and spices, it's medium to full-bodied, velvety and layered, with terrific concentration, lively acids and an elegantly complete profile. Concentrated but beautifully refined, it's a fabulous wine in the making. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-94)(5-Star wine) Still in barrel, unracked. Rich deep purple with a heady ripe raspberry fruit. But it is fresh, clean, mineral and intense on the palate with a lovely supple fruit backed by clean energy. Darker fruit, but significantly more weight. In fact, this is astonishingly concentrated at the back of the palate. There are plenty of tannins here, but easily enough fruit. |

Vinous (89-91)The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos-Prieur 1er Cru offers more red fruit on the nose, a little ripe and fleshier compared to the La Petite Chapelle. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, very good weight, though I find more nuance in Trapet's other cuvées, hence my more parsimonious score. |

Wine Advocate (90-92)The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin "Ostrea" has a more complex bouquet than the regular Gevrey Village cru, leaning a little more to the red side of the fruit spectrum than the black, with chalk and limestone scents emerging with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with supple ripe tannin, a fresh line of acidity, quite pure in the mouth with a silky smooth finish that lingers. I love the mineralité here. |

Vinous (92)The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin "Ostrea", which contains around 40% whole bunch fruit, has a broody but quite compelling bouquet with blackberry, bilberry and a light marine influence. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit on the entry, a fine line of acidity and a classic, almost "nonchalant", self-effacing finish that is just a pure joy. |

Vinous (92-94)The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin "Ostrea" comprises around 70% whole cluster this year and comes from parcels around the village of Brochon. This has an elegant bouquet of gorgeous wild strawberry and raspberry preserve aromas, the oak seamlessly integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and well-judged acidity, and so juicy that it is nigh impossible to detect the stem addition. This might well constitute the best "Ostrea" I have tasted from Trapet. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-94)(5-Star wine) Still in barrel, unracked. Rich deep purple with a heady ripe raspberry fruit. But it is fresh, clean, mineral and intense on the palate with a lovely supple fruit backed by clean energy. Darker fruit, but significantly more weight. In fact, this is astonishingly concentrated at the back of the palate. There are plenty of tannins here, but easily enough fruit. |
