Gevrey Chambertin Vieilles Vignes 2015 Domaine Rossignol Trapet 75cl

Varietal: Pinot Noir.
Family owned: 4 ha
Cultivation method: vines grown biodynamically certified DEMETER by ECOCERT.

Gevrey-Chambertin is the largest red wine village in the Côte d'Or with its 550 ha of vines in total.

The word Gevrey comes from “Gibriacus” which means goat guardian because of its dry and arid lands where classic crops could not grow.

Only goat breeding allowed the inhabitants to live. These lands were the favorite place for vines in the first century AD.

The word Chambertin, the most famous soil of the village, was attached to Gevrey in 1847. Gevrey-Chambertin was the first village that used this feature.

The parcels grouped in the Vieilles Vignes cuvée of Gevrey-Chambertin come from three different situations:

– The vines furthest north of the village at places called “En Combe” and “Clos de Combe” are quite deep and clayey plots, on a regular slope, which produce sappy, dense and robust wines.

– The plots further east and closer to the estate, at places called Les Crais, Justice, Grandes Raies, are made up of colluvium from the Combe de Lavaux which overlooks Gevrey-Chambertin. These soils, very gently sloping, gravelly and very filtering, produce wines of finesse and elegance.

– The vines located to the south of Gevrey-Chambertin (at places called “Clos de l'Arche”, “Fourneaux”, “Croix des Champs”) are on fairly loamy soil and on limestone bedrock. They produce wines with great complexity and great aromatic power.

The blending and bottling of the wines come from these different terroirs, with vines whose average age is around 50 years, resulting in a single vintage of Gevrey-Chambertin at the Domaine.

Each plot brings its qualities to the entire vintage.

GEVREY CHAMBERTIN JEAN PIERRE GUYON 2016 75CL

The DOMAINE GUYON scea is located in the town of Vosne Romanée.

The estate has been geared towards organic viticulture since the 2000s. To provide transparency in viticulture and winemaking techniques, the estate entered into an Ecocert accreditation process in 2009 and obtained accreditation in 2012 .

The family estate was born before the war, his grandfather and his father successively and wisely led it until his brother and himself took charge of it in the 1990s. The man knows each of his vines, often very old, on the end of his secateurs. Jean pierre guyon took over the operation on his own.

His ambition is to return to what he considers the old way of doing things: that is to say winemaking with most of the whole bunches; no addition of sulfur, if possible, until the spring following harvest.

Entonnage after pressing and brief passage in vat. Slow vinification according to the temperatures of the seasons.

CHAMBERTIN CHAPEL GRAND CRU 2014 DOMAINE ROSSIGNOL TRAPET

Family owned: 0,54 ha 
In the Chapel: 40 has
In Gemini: 14 has
Method of cultivation: vine cultivated in biodynamics certified DEMETER by ECOCERT.

In 1155, the monks of Bèze had built at this place a chapel called Clos de Bèze because it was facing him and was therefore on the east side of the path that goes from Gevrey to Morey. A portico spanned even the path from east to west. 
This chapel was dedicated to Our Lady.

Fallen into disuse in XVth century, it is rebuilt in 1547 by the vine growers. It is Philibert de Beaujeu, bishop of Bethlehem, who dedicates again the 4 July. She was shaved after the Revolution of 1789.

The locality was initially named Sous la Chapelle (the first mention date of 1457), with a High and a Low part.

The Chapel is on a slightly declining area. It is one of the most solar and early sectors of finage Grands Crus.

The situation of the plot is just below Chambertin.

The exhibition is perfect in the Levant.

Its soil is brown, stony and very shallow. At about 30 cm, there is a band of limestone rocks (called lava) which sometimes outcrop. The lavas are flat, gray limestone slabs; they were once used to cover the roofs of houses and churches. Similar roofs can still be found in Burgundy today.

A low slope ensures excellent natural drainage thanks to permeable white limestone scree that line this remarkable plot.

The low thickness of the soil and its rather warm nature lead to La Chapelle-Chambertin a portly and sensual wine, with finesse and elegance, always with great aromatic richness and exceptional density.

The average age of the vines is 60 years (the first plantations date from 1930) and planted only in fine Pinot Noir from mass selection with a planting density of 12 500 plants / ha.

The Chapelle-Chambertin appellation brings together two localities under its name, “Chapelle” proper and “Les Gémeaux”.

Less solar than upper chapel (in a slightly deeper soil), Gemini gives fleshier wines, very dense, tannins a little more formed.

Only this Domain owns these two parcels and is able today to diffuse an assembly of Gemini and Chapel.
