1999 | Domaine Rossignol-Trapet | Chambertin Grand Cru

Deep red. Exotic oak spices and a whiff of white rose on the nose.

Reviews:

• Allen Meadows: Quite reduced and in need of racking but with aggressive aeration, the fruit finally peeked through. The character here is very Chapelle with tight, elegant red fruits, good finesse and solid Pinot character.

• James Suckling: Deep red. Exotic oak spices and a whiff of white rose on the nose. Lush, sweet and fat with fruit, but the red berry flavors could use a bit more verve. Lingering finish shows a trace of dryness.

Producer Information

Domaine Rossignol-Trapet is wine producer based in Gevrey-Chambertin, 13km (eight miles) south of Dijon, in Burgundy's Côte de Nuits subregion. The wider Rossignol-Trapet estate includes vineyards located in both the Côte de Nuits and the more southerly Côte de Beaune, and produces a range of wines covering grand and premier cru sites, predominantly in the Gevrey and Beaune appellations. The domaine was founded in 1961 by the marriage of Jacques Rossignol and Mado Trapet. Both the Rossignol and Trapet families have long and notable histories in the regions of Volnay and Gevrey-Chambertin, respectively. Their sons Nicolas and David Rossignol took over the management of the estate in 1990, and subsequently introduced biodynamic agricultural practices to the Domaine. The estate is a Pinot Noir producer, working with the variety across a range of sites and at vine densities that range from low to high. They are generally located on southeast facing hillsides, typified by mineral-rich soils composed of clay and a variety of minerals, but mainly based around limestone. The estate is certified biodynamic by Demeter and organic by Ecocert, and favors the use of of natural herbicides, as well as natural and organic fertilizers, in its vineyards. Domaine Rossignol-Trapet holds vineyards in the Côte de Nuits Grand Cru climats of Le Chambertin, Latricieres-Chambertin and Chapelle-Chambertin, as well as five Côte de Nuits Premier Cru-classified vineyards in Clos Prieur, Petite Chapelle, Cherbaudes, Les Corbeaux and Aux Combottes.
