Domaine Trapet Père et Fils is one of the greatest estates of Gevrey-Chambertin, with superb holdings in three of the top grand crus in the village and a legacy of great wines that dates back to their earliest days of estate bottling.
In addition to his Burgundy estate, Jean-Louis and his wife also produce wines from her family’s property in Alsace.
The Schoenenbourg vineyard has marl and calcareous sandstone soils ideally suited to Riesling.
This has a lovely nose, heightened floral notes, citrus and lychee with a steely seam of minerals.
The palate is both complex and subtle, a blend of honeyed star fruit and lemon freshness.
Upbeat and harmonious, with real drive and precision.
