FEATURES
The 2016 Domaine Trapet Père et Fils Chambertin Grand Cru is a highly acclaimed red Burgundy, often described as savory and classic, made from Pinot Noir grapes. The 2016 vintage in Burgundy was challenging due to frost, yet Trapet's Chambertin Grand Cru emerged as a great success, showcasing clarity, vividness, tension, and energy. Critics have lauded this wine with high scores, including 96/100 from Jasper Morris and 95-97/100 from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. John Gilman praised its pure, complex, and utterly refined bouquet of red and black cherries, cassis, grilled meats, woodsmoke, and a complex soil base. On the palate, it's deep, complex, and rock-solid, with great focus, grip, and impeccable balance, leading to a long, ripely tannic finish. It is noted for its fine-grain tannin, leaning towards red fruit, and a structured finish. 【Exceptional quality despite challenging vintage】
