The Trapet 2005 Chambertin comes from three (I am told) geologically distinct parcels. Bitter-sweet cherry, anisette, and mocha scent the nose. In the mouth this is undeniably expansive and rich, with complexities of gamey meatiness and humus mingling with its sweet berry fruit. Whether it is some negative synergy with the barrel or just the result of recent bottling, I find a slight sour streak in the finish. But a small (and hopefully fleeting) blemish can be easily hidden amid such folds of fruit, viscosity and abundant, fine-grained tannin as are on display . This is perfect for those who want a friendly bear of a Burgundy they can hug – preferably in around ten years’ time. Also recommended: 2005 Bourgogne Passetoutgrain (86), 2005 Bourgogne Aminima ($25.00; 85), 2005 Marsannay (86). Young Jean-Louis Trapet evinces an inspiring degree of sincerity and that rarest of human virtues “humbition”. He is clearly determined to return his family’s estate to the celebrated place they occupied on the international stage for much of the late 20th century, and thinks a critical tool is the practice of biodynamics, in which the domaine was recently officially certified. Nature certainly cooperated in 2005 almost regardless of method let alone metaphysics, and this is a promising collection. The wines are not sulfured at all during their elevage, and only minimally at bottling, demanding that the typical taster re-calibrate his or her palate accordingly.

Deep, youthful red. Deep aromas of black cherry, dark berries and licorice, complicated by a hint of menthol (but no greenness), leathery and meaty nuances, and a faint liqueur-like warmth. Quite fleshy, broad and rich, with its dark fruit and mineral flavors conveying a distinctly spicy quality. This doesn't quite display the high notes of the 2008 but then it's a sunnier style of wine. Compellingly full in the mouth and evolving very slowly. Finishes sappy and very long, with serious youthful tannins that avoid dryness but could still use more time to round out. (13.25% alcohol; 38.5 h/h; 3.48 pH, 3.6 g/l acidity; vinified with 60% whole clusters, which Trapet described as a little high for him)
