Having matured gracefully over more than a decade, the Domaine Trapet Père et Fils Chambertin Grand Cru 2006 is drinking beautifully now, offering both the richness of its youth and the nuanced complexity of maturity. It is a profound testament to the grandeur of Chambertin and the artistry of Domaine Trapet.
