History

The wines have gone from strength to strength under the tenure of Jean-Louis Trapet. Since taking over the reigns, Jean-Louis has effected many changes. Initially these involved restricting yields, introducing lower-yielding rootstocks, high density planting and green harvesting, when required. The rewards were so obvious that a wholesale change in the way they had been working seemed to be the logical next step. Biodynamic disciplines were soon adopted. Jean-Louis and his wife Andrée are both acutely aware of their responsibility to past, present and future generations, where their vineyard holdings are concerned. They are equally tireless in their pursuit of quality.

Winemaking

Wine is one of the most civilized things in existence. In my capacity as a wine grower, the path of gentleness and respect enables me to make my way towards the highest degree of expression of my soils. This gentleness, chosen with due consideration, often follows the paths of tradition.

It travels across the vineyard. From the first buds to harvesting, the grape is accompanied but never forced. It passes through the fermentation room where the bunches of grapes are meticulously sorted and delicately pressed.

It follows its course through the cellar where the wine gently oozes out in all solemnity. It finally slips into its bottle to set free in their entirety, some years later, its flavours and delicate, elegant and harmonious fragrances.

In short, the prospects that gentleness offers to the wine grower who knows how to follow them through are rich. Rich, too, are the heady perspectives for the amateur who knows how to taste them.
