2022 Domaine Trapet Pere et Fils, Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru

The 2022 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru is 100% whole bunches. It has more complexity and nuance on the nose than the Latricières, with crushed limestone and white flowers filtering through the layers of red fruit, very harmonious and seductive. The medium-bodied palate has quite a powerful entry, sorbet-fresh with hints of orange zest and tangerine interwoven through the black fruit. It's grippy and quite spicy on the long finish. This will require several years in bottle but will be worth your patience.

The 2022 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru is almost as elegant as the Latricières this year, soaring from the glass with scents of plums, raspberries, rose petals and spices, followed by a full-bodied, ample and perfumed palate that's seamless and refined, with terrific depth at the core, tangy acids and a long, rose-inflected finish.
