Description
With one foot in Burgundy and one in Alsace, the Trapet family aims to translate and pass on all the expressions of the grape and the terroir, such as the know-how transmitted to them from generation to generation. Jean-Louis, the seventh generation, joined his father Jean at the estate in 1986. He made his first cuvée entirely alone in 1990 and has run the estate since then with his wife Andrée, who took over her Alsatian family estate in 2003. While the estate is best known for its three grand crus, the quality at Domaine Trapet is outstanding up and down the hierarchy of their vineyard holdings. The vineyards have been fully farmed under biodynamic principles since 1996 and certified biodynamic since 2009.

Tasting Note
Citrus fruits and green apples express beautiful minerality and freshness. A few light notes of apricot bring delicacy, roundness, and balance to the wine. The finish is silky and very long.
Food Pairing
Great partner for fish, poultry, and cheeses such as Brie, camembert, or gouda.
