Community Tasting Notes (average 90.9 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 21 notes) - hiding notes with no text

 Tasted by Argrath on 4/1/2022 & rated 91 points: Rich and generous nose. Very pinot! Gently oaky. Aromatic. Strawberry, herbs and a waft of perfume.
Medium-fullish palate. Balanced and rich. Almost New World-richness. Strawberry and exotic spices. Only a bit of intensity shows its classification. Super-vintage 2010 delivers again. (755 views)
 Tasted by vinum bonum on 7/4/2021 & rated 90 points: Ouvert pour vérifier la réputation du millésime 2010, première rencontre avec le producteur. La robe tend déjà vers l'orangé, le nez est plutôt mutique à l'ouverture, tout comme la bouche. Deux heures d'air plus tard, les arômes ne sont pas très ouverts, mais assez élégants sur la cendre, la ronce, un élevage intégré assez classieux, mais discret. Comme le nez, la bouche n'offre pas beaucoup de fruit, on est face à un vin qui ne manque toutefois pas de séduction dans le genre "beauté froide". Assez élégant et distingué à défaut d'être gourmand, il offre une très belle matière et une persistance moyenne, mais un moulin à vent de Chermette qui passe juste après révèle a posteriori qu'on ne joue pas dans la même cour. J'attendais mieux, mais çà s'est bu tout seul. 90+ (1183 views)
 Tasted by Misterobit on 9/6/2019: lots of fun with this bottle, fantastic nose at opening, medium light body with the Gevrey perfume, little berries with even some rose. The wine was fading after 4 hours, but the bottle was empty, delicious (1575 views)
 Tasted by Blacksmith450 on 4/25/2018 & rated 91 points: Typé et racé. Fruit vivant et finale fumée qui s'étire longtemps. (2582 views)
 Tasted by beatles on 2/10/2018 & rated 91 points: Very fine, hitting the pinot-spot right on; the purity impresses, very elegant wine, none of the rusticity, than can be the hallmark of this terroir. Very easy to drink, very easy to love, carressing wine ... #Lieffroy (1962 views)
 Tasted by winelegends.net on 11/16/2016 & rated 91 points: Dunkles Rubinrot
Schwarzfruchtig,erdig,floraler Gevrey der wirklich viel Potential hat.
Ist aus der Kleinflasche doch sehr schön zu geniessen,was vorallem der samtigen,vollen Art zu verdanken ist.
Denke auch ein Ausrufezeichen für die 1.er und Grand Crus aus diesem Jahrgang von Trapet. (2000 views)
 Tasted by Argrath on 10/26/2016 & rated 89 points: Full, oaky nose with nutty aromas. Gun-powder and ginger. Cherry and forest floor. Some NW Pinot impressions...
Medium-fullish body. Lovely, generous and inviting. Strawberry, red fruit, ginger and cinnamon. Oaky and succulent. But not overtly complex.
The vintage delivers. Ready to go. (1412 views)
 Tasted by E1855 on 1/1/2016 & rated 93 points: It took me a while to convince myself that I wanted to open this very young bottle for New Year's Eve. I did not regret my choice, it was wonderful, slightly tight at the beginning but it began opening after 30 mn. Delicate, pure, fresh, pale color, little concentration. A great old style wine from Trapet, it reminded me of Figeac, another wonderful product not looking for dark color, fruit or oak taste. (1699 views)
 Tasted by chablis28 on 8/29/2015 & rated 91 points: This might be the archetypal example of Gevrey Chambertin terroir. Pure, weightless, earthy, minerally, almost tart cherry, spice and raspberry flavors. Masculine with pitch perfect finesse. Medium translucent red color. Great Burg nose! Include this wine in your "Burgundy 101 class". Paid $60 and worth it. 12.5% ALC. Kermit Lynch didn't import this but, he'd love it. (2102 views)
 Tasted by urbanfarmer9@gmail.com on 9/23/2014: Drink with pleasure: strong chewy wood, loads of fresh fruit and brightness, delicious young burg with a naughty finish in a very good year at $59 I'm not complaining. I'll look for more and try for premiere. (2296 views)
 Tasted by urbanfarmer9@gmail.com on 2/24/2014: not so woody this time; balanced elegant (2191 views)
 Tasted by willthethrill on 8/6/2013 & rated 89 points: This falls in the category of "best served very chilled." Perfectly drinkable on ice over lunch at LGP, but out of the ice bucket this wine is one those French pinots which are light on the front end and dry and way too chalky on the back end. (2415 views)
 Tasted by winelegends.net on 6/8/2013 & rated 91 points: Helles Rubinrot.
Rote Johannisbeeren,vanillige Kirschen,erdig,Hauch Mokka,Tannine integriert,Holznoten gut eingebunden.
1.Tag Säure prägnanter,2.Tag weicher,runder,minzig.
Frischer, reintöniger Gevrey Chambertin mit mittelangem rotfruchtigen Abgang.
Hält auch problemlos den Sommer aus. (1953 views)
 Tasted by Gargantua on 4/14/2013 & rated 91 points: Lets go of its reduction over about a half an hour; a lovely, light 2010 bright package of a sweet, skunky Gevrey. Nice tart clean acid finish proper to a 2010. Will only get better! I wonder if these will ever shut down. I'm guessing they won't. (1820 views)
 Tasted by Burgundy Al on 3/9/2013: La Paulée de New York Grand Tasting (Metropolitan Pavilion - New York NY): Tasting. Approachable and accessible today on nose and palate. Black fruit, well textured with good balance and length for its level. (2840 views)
 Tasted by Burgundy Al on 3/22/2012: DIVA Burgundy Tasting; 3/21/2012-3/22/2012 (Maison Champy - Beaune): Wine tasting. Black berry aromas and flavors. Fruit is somewhat delicate and already easy to enjoy. Sensational for its level, another impressive 2010 from Gevrey. (3583 views)

Pinot Noir

Varietal character (Appellation America) | Varietal article (Wikipedia)
Pinot Noir is the Noble red grape of Burgundy, capable of ripening in a cooler climate, which Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot will not reliably do. It is unpredictable and difficult both to grow and to vinify, but results in some of the finest reds in the world. It is believed to have been selected from wild vines two thousand years ago. It is also used in the production of champagne. In fact, more Pinot Noir goes into Champagne than is used in all of the Cote d'Or! It is also grown in Alsace, Jura, Germany, the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Romania, Switzerland, Austria, Croatia, Serbia, Italy, and so forth, with varying degrees of success.


Pinot Noir is one of the world's most prestigious grapes. It is very difficult to grow and thrives well in France, especially in Champagne and Burgundy. Pinot Noir thrives less in hot areas, is picky on soil, and deserves some oak storage.

Pinot Noir, or Blauburgunder / Spätburgunder in German, is a blue grapevine - and, as the German name suggests, the grape comes originally from Burgundy in France.

The grape, which thrives in calcareous soils, is used primarily for the production of red wine, and it is widely regarded as producing some of the best wines in the world. The wine style is often medium-bodied with high fruit acidity and soft tannins. It can be quite peculiar in fragrance and taste, and not least in structure - which may be why it is referred to as "The Grapes Ballerina".
Pinot Noir is also an important ingredient in sparkling wines, not least in champagne since it is fruity, has good acidity and contains relatively little tannins.
The grape is considered quite demanding to grow. The class itself consists of tightly packed grapes, which makes it more sensitive to rot and other diseases.

Pinot Noir changes quite easily and is genetically unstable. It buds and matures early which results in it often being well ripened. Climate is important for this type of grape. It likes best in cool climates - in warm climates the wines can be relaxed and slightly pickled.
In cooler climates, the wine can get a hint of cabbage and wet leaves, while in slightly warmer regions we often find notes of red berries (cherries, strawberries, raspberries, currants), roses and slightly green notes when the wine is young. With age, more complex aromas of forest floor, fungi and meat emerge.

In Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Hungary, it often produces light wines with less character. However, it has produced very good results in California, Oregon and New Zealand.

With its soft tannins and delicate aroma, it is excellent for white fish, chicken and light meat. For the stored wines you can serve small game. Classic duck breast is a matter of course, a Boeuf Burgundy and Pinot Noir are pure happiness.

Pinot Noir loses quality by over-harvesting.
Pinot Noir is prone to diseases, especially rot and mildew. Viruses cause major problems especially in Burgundy.
Pinot Noir are large round grapes with thin skins. Relatively high in alcohol content. Medium rich tannins and good with acid.
As a young person, Pinot Noir has a distinctly fruity character such as raspberries, cherries and strawberries.
A mature Pinot Noir, the taste is different. Cherry goes into plum and prune flavors. It smells of rotten leaves, coffee, moist forest floor and animal wine. This must be experienced.
In warm climates you find boiled plum, some rustic, little acid.
If the grapes are over-grown, the wine will be thin, with little color and flavor.

Burgundy

Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)

Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson

# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates

# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson

# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson

# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
