2022 Trapet Pere et Fils, Latricieres-Chambertin Grand Cru

The 2022 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru has turned out beautifully, wafting from the glass with aromas of cassis, dark berries and cherries mingled with hints of peony, spice and a discreet framing of new oak. Medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, it's bright and concentrated, with lively acids, powdery tannins and a penetrating finish.

The 2022 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru, 60% whole bunches, is very perfumed and floral on the nose with ebullient red berry fruit, wet clay, forest floor and morels gradually cohering in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet pastille-like entry of redcurrant, cranberry and maraschino cherries, with white pepper and clove touches. Very complex, very harmonious. It fans out beautifully on the finish. Polished and succinct, this Latricières will age gracefully in bottle.
