Domaine Rossignol Trapet Latricieres Chambertin Grand Cru 2020, 1.5L

100% Pinot Noir from a 0.73-hectare parcel in Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru, located just south of Chambertin on a narrow, stony slope with shallow limestone-rich soils. The vineyard is biodynamically farmed and planted at a density of 12,500 vines per hectare, with vines averaging 55 years of age. Grapes are hand-harvested and fermented with native yeasts in open wooden vats. Around 50% whole bunches were used. The wine was aged for approximately 18 months in French oak barrels, with 30% new oak.

Tasting Note:

The 2020 vintage opens with aromas of red and black cherries, plum, gamebird, and spice, layered over a base of dark minerality. The palate is medium-bodied and structured, with fine acidity, firm tannins, and a long, mineral-driven finish. The cooler microclimate of Latricières brings freshness and precision to this expressive and age-worthy wine.
