Tasting notes
Reviewed by: Neal Martin
The 2022 Chambertin Grand Cru is blessed with a well-defined bouquet with delineated, quite effervescent red fruit that leaps from the glass. The medium-bodied palate is cohesive with sapid red fruit, good body and density and a dash of white pepper towards the finish. This is easily the best of the Domaine's 2022s, predictable as that reads, but that's the way it is. Excellent.
About the Producer
Nicolas and David Rossignol oversee 13 hectares principally situated in Gevrey-Chambertin which, from 1997 to 2004, they slowly and fully converted to biodynamics. Their range entails 3 magnificent Grands crus that many a Burgundian wine lover only dreams of: Chambertin Grand Cru, Latricières Chambertin Grand Cru and Chapelle Chambertin Grand cru all of excellent quality and currently not stratospherically priced, at least for the moment! Thereafter are their 5 premier crus: Rossignol Trapet Gevrey Chambertin 1er cru "Clos Prieur", Rossignol Trapet Gevrey Chambertin 1er cru "Cherbaudes", Rossignol Trapet Gevrey Chambertin 1er cru "Aux Combottes", Rossignol Trapet Gevrey Chambertin 1er cru "Les Corbeaux" and Rossignol Trapet Gevrey Chambertin 1er cru "Petite Chapelle". Finally, their range is completed by 6 additional wines: a Rossignol Trapet Gevrey Chambertin Vieilles Vignes, a remarkable Gevrey Chambertin "Les Etelois" (a climate that borders the Griotte Chambertin Grand cru), a Beaune 1er cru Les Teurons, a Beaune Les Mariages", a Savigny-lès-Beaune "Les Bas Liards" and finally a regional red Burgundy. The wines of Rossignol Trapet are pure, elegant, dense, but not over extracted, and are capable of going the distance.
