Domaine Jean-Louis Trapet
ドメーヌ・ジャン・ルイ・トラペ
Profile
ジュヴレ・シャンベルタン村に拠点を置くドメーヌ・ジャン・ルイ・トラペは、村の象徴とも言える特級畑を核に据えた生産者である。保有する2つのグラン・クリュの中でも、1.9ヘクタールという広大な面積を誇るシャンベルタンは、このドメーヌを語る上で欠かせない。バジョシアン期の石灰岩を基盤とするこの畑は、隣接するクロ・ド・ベーズに比べて冷涼な風の影響を受けやすく、力強さと威厳を備えた「ワインの王」と称される。一方、0.6ヘクタールを所有するシャペル・シャンベルタンは、表土が極めて薄いという特徴を持ち、優れた造り手の手によって崇高なワインへと昇華される。抽出や樽使いを強調したかつてのスタイルから、現在はより多様で巧みな表現へと進化を遂げ、テロワールの個性を精緻に描き出している。

History
Domaine Jean-Louis Trapet is based in Gevrey-Chambertin and works two grand cru parcels — Chambertin (1.90 ha) and Chapelle-Chambertin (0.60 ha). The Trapet family has deep roots in Gevrey: their Chambertin vines trace back through multiple generations, making this one of the older families farming that storied climat. Jean-Louis Trapet converted the domaine to biodynamic viticulture in the 1990s, a shift that now defines its approach across both vineyards.
Winemaking Approach
Biodynamic farming governs both the vineyard calendar and the guiding philosophy in the cellar. The Chambertin parcel at 1.90 ha produces the estate's principal wine — a wine that leans toward precision and mineral tension rather than sheer weight. Chapelle-Chambertin, at 0.60 ha, typically shows a slightly lighter, more aromatic character. Both wines age in barrel without excessive new oak, aiming to let the terroir speak rather than the cellar.
