In the mouth
Well-balanced acidity frames the palate. Flavours of pineapple and pink grapefruit develop alongside a mineral undertone. The finish is clean and persistent, with a gentle warmth.
On the nose
Intensely aromatic: white flowers—honeysuckle and rose petals—mingle with ripe tropical fruit, lychee, and stone fruit. A subtle spice note emerges as the wine opens.
On the eye
Very pale straw with green-tinged reflections; bright and translucent.
I regard this Gewurztraminer as a wine of genuine versatility. It shines alongside spiced dishes—Southeast Asian cuisine, curries—and holds its own with pungent cheeses. It also pairs beautifully with fruit-based desserts. A wine that rewards attention and improves with a year or two in bottle.

DOMAINE TRAPET
Based in Gevrey-Chambertin at the heart of the Côte de Nuits, Domaine Trapet cultivates 15 hectares across Burgundy's most celebrated terroirs, including a parcel of Chambertin Grand Cru acquired in 1919. Founded in 1870 by Louis Trapet, the estate has remained in family hands for over 150 years. Jean-Louis and Andrée Trapet converted the entire vineyard to biodynamic farming in 1995 — today certified Demeter. The clay-limestone soils and well-drained calcareous slopes of Gevrey find their fullest expression through this rigorous approach. At Halles Quercamps, we selected this estate for the integrity of its biodynamic commitment across five generations and the precision with which its Pinot Noirs articulate the great terroirs of the Côte de Nuits.
