Latricieres Chambertin, Trapet Pere et Fils 2017 (OCC 6)

Description

By Vinous in 2019 (NM94-96)

The 2017 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru has a tight-lipped bouquet, reticent at the moment, though it reluctantly opens with blackberry, bilberry and light graphite aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannin and a supremely well judged line of acidity that makes this Grand Cru feel so natural and refined. This is a rare case of a sensual Latricières in the making. Bon vin!

By Wine Advocate in 2019 (WA92-94)

The 2017 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru is lovely, unfurling in the glass with aromas of sweet wild berries, grilled meats, peonies, dark chocolate and Indian spices. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, fine boned and tensile, with excellent concentration and depth at the sappy core, fine tannins and a bright line of animating acidity. The Latricières is second only to the Chambertin this year, and very different in personality
