Domaine Trapet Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru "Capita"

With vines planted as far back as 1913, Domaine Trapet has firmly established itself as one of the great traditional estates in the Burgundian village of Gevrey-Chambertin. Jean-Louis met and married Andree, a wine grower from Alsace, and together they own top vineyards in both Alsace and Burgundy. Their quality is consistent with wine critics and lovers praising this husband and wife team as a force to be reckoned with. Jean-Louis Trapet has taken a departure from antiquated agricultural practices and is recognised as one of the producers at the forefront of the biodynamic movement. Ploughing is used instead of herbicides, and Trapet has placed a strict ban on the use of any chemical insecticides. The wines are made in Beaune.
