“The first vintage of this 1859 cuvée was 2019. The name refers to when Louis Trapet arrived in Gevrey and bought En Derée and Champerriers. The soils include a lot of silica and drains well. There is very good genetic material here too, replanted after phylloxera and before 1st World War. A lively fresh purple colour. Splendid raspberry and fresh plum fruit with excellent acidity. Startlingly fine. Drink from 2026-2033.”

“The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Cuvee 1859, the cuvee introduced in 2019 to celebrate the arrival of the Trapet family in Gevrey, comes from two parcels planted just after phylloxera. It has a beautiful bouquet with perfumed red cherry and wild strawberry fruit, touches of pressed rose petals and crushed stone. Very well delineated. The palate is medium-bodied with finely-chiseled tannins, sapid and lively, very focused with a tensile, slightly gourmand finish. This is very promising.”
Alcohol: 12.5%
