Score 93-95/100 · Drink 2003-2012, Pierre Rovani, Oct 1999

Trapet's medium to dark ruby-colored Chambertin is one of the vintage's superstars. Its fresh, blackberry, Asian spice, and earth-scented nose leads to a stupendously profound, deep, and expansive personality. Prunes, earth, leather, blackberries, and juniper berries can be discerned in this chewy, thick, velvety-textured wine. If the color black has a flavor, this wine embodies it. This tour de force in wine-making and vineyard work should be consumed between 2003-2012+. Bravo! Importer: A Patrick Lesec Selection, Paris Fax #: 011-33-1-44-70-62-93.

Bright ruby-red. Knockout aromas of currant, wild plum, mocha, minerals, coffee grounds and smoked meat. Highly concentrated, with a compelling sappy sweetness. Excellent balancing acidity and a firm mineral underpinning give this fleshy wine superb clarity of flavor. Finishes very long and juicy. A very full style of '97 that should age well and taste good young. Also tasted: 1997 Marsannay*.
