Jean-Louis Trapet told me that 2006 was a challenge, particularly in Gevrey-Chambertin, but in the end he was happy with what he had in barrel. "We had good weather until the hailstorm at the end of July," he said, "but the hail threw off the balance of the weather. We then had cool, humid periods in August. Chapelle-Chambertin was the most affected by hail, especially at the top of the cru, but Latricieres was spared and only the bottom of Chambertin on the north side was touched." Trapet carried out a talc treatment the day after the hailstorm to dry out the grapes in the vines hit by hail. Then at harvest time, he left the dried grapes on the sorting table after carrying out a triage in the vines. And he destemmed this fruit almost entirely. Ultimately he produced 30 to 35 hectoliters per hectare from the unaffected parcels, and just 20 in Chapelle-Chambertin.

"Very ripe in sugars and tannins but crisp, with good natural tension," said Jean-Louis Trapet of the young 2005s. Trapet told me he did not chaptalize and carried out a very light extraction. This biodynamic producer essentially makes wine without sulfur additions. "I add five centiliters per barrel of SO2 just prior to the bottling, but nothing before that," he said. The 2005 grand crus should be very long-lived. (A Patrick Lesec Selection; importers include The Stacole Company, Boca Raton, FL; Classic Wine Imports, Boston, MA; Wine Warehouse, Commerce, CA)
