Domaine Rossignol Trapet, Beaune 1er Cru, Teurons, Burgundy, France, 2022

Producer Profile

The 14 hectare Domaine Rossignol-Trapet was created as recently as 1990 when the original Louis Trapet vineyard holdings were divided between his daughter and his son-in-law Jacques Rossignol.

Since then Jacques’ two sons, Nicolas and David have gradually taken over the reins of the business. The domaine has been certified 100% biodynamic since 2004. With vineyards spread equally across Village, 1er Cru and Grand Cru holdings in Gevrey Chambertin, the domaine offers a fascinating insight into the sheer variety of flavours that this famous Burgundy village can muster. The brothers are very pleased with their 2014s, which reflect their very precise origins with clarity and elegance.

Viticulture

This is produced from ten different parcels in the village and the average age of the vines is around 65 years old.
