2005 Latricières-Chambertin, Grand Cru, Domaine Rossignol-Trapet, Burgundy

Their first year of conversion to biodynamics. Vines were planted in 1934 and the late 1960s—half whole bunch.

Dark garnet. Very sumptuous, well-developed, rich notes on the nose. It has fully evolved already with some meatiness and delivery of finesse. It is a really useful, quite precocious 2005 Grand Cru. There are no infinite layers but lots of pleasure and good structure. Just a hint of dustiness. Mildly chunky on the end. Lip-smacking. 

Drink 2015 - 2030
