France
The vast and diverse wine regions of France, each with its own unique terroirs, grape varieties, and winemaking techniques, are a treasure trove.
In Bordeaux, the birthplace of some of the world's most iconic wines, esteemed vineyards such as Château Lafite Rothschild, Château Margaux, Château Latour, and Château Haut-Brion produce exceptional red wines, showcasing the art of blending Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec. The region is also renowned for its exquisite white wines, with vineyards like Château d'Yquem and Domaine de Chevalier producing legendary sweet wines.
Moving to Burgundy, the vineyards of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Domaine Leroy, and Domaine Armand Rousseau capture the essence of the region's revered terroir, crafting exquisite red wines from the Pinot Noir grape. Meanwhile, Domaine Leflaive and Domaine Coche-Dury are celebrated for their world-class white wines, predominantly made from Chardonnay.
The Champagne region, known for its sparkling wines, boasts illustrious houses such as Krug, Dom Pérignon, and Moët & Chandon, as well as grower-producers like Pierre Péters and Jacques Selosse. These vineyards create exceptional sparkling wines using the traditional method, offering a symphony of delicate bubbles, elegant flavors, and vibrant acidity.
In the Rhône Valley, iconic vineyards like Chapoutier, E. Guigal, and Château de Beaucastel produce remarkable red wines in the northern appellations of Hermitage, Côte-Rôtie, and Cornas, showcasing the elegance and power of Syrah. Further south, Châteauneuf-du-Pape is celebrated for its rich and full-bodied red blends, with Château Rayas and Clos des Papes leading the way.
In Alsace, vineyards such as Domaine Zind-Humbrecht and omaine Trimbach craft exquisite white wines, including Riesling, Gewürztraminer, and Pinot Gris, expressing the region's unique terroir and varietal character.
These are just a few highlights among the diverse array of wines that France offers. From the Loire Valley's crisp whites and elegant reds to the Languedoc-Roussillon's bold and robust wines, each region presents its own vinous treasures.

Burghound (94-97)(from 3 different parcels that total 1.85 ha). This is the most floral wine in the range with a huge array of such elements adding elegance to the poached plum, dark currant, smoked game, exotic tea and moderate wood aromas. The gorgeously textured, mineral-driven and overtly muscular big-bodied flavors possess a Zen-like harmony on the superbly long, complex and built-to-age finale where the only nit is a hint of warmth. This is potentially spectacular and a wine that should amply reward 15 to 20 years of aging. |

Wine Advocate (94)The 2010 Chapelle-Chambertin is a haunting wine graced with exquisite aromatics and layers of silky fruit. This is all class and elegance. The 2010 boasts striking inner perfume and sweetness all the way through to the finish. There is a level of textural brilliance and finesse here that is just plain gorgeous. Anticipated maturity: 2025-2040. |

Vinous (93-95)The 2017 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru contains around 60% whole bunches. It has a divine bouquet, so pure and bewitching with pressed violet tinged black cherry and raspberry aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent black fruit. The 50% new oak is nicely integrated, firming up towards a foursquare and quite masculine finish that should see it age for up to 20 years. Great potential. |

Wine Advocate (94-96)Notes of rose petals, orange rind, cassis, rich soil tones and raw cocoa preface Trapet's 2019 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru, a medium to full-bodied, elegantly sumptuous and enveloping wine that's deep and complete, with lively acids, velvety tannins and a long, saline finish. As I've observed before, this derives exclusively from holdings located in lieu-dit En la Chapelle. |

The palate is beautifully-defined, the 80% whole bunch impacting freshness and salinity, filigree tannins with an abundance of tension on the finish. Class from start to finish. |

Vinous (95-97)The 2021 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru, the first Grand Cru to be picked with 50% whole clusters, has a fragrant, pure and (unlike Latricières) inviting bouquet that just wants to seduce. Very sensual. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins that frame the crystalline red fruit, supreme mineralité with one of the most elegant finishes you will find in this vintage. Reminiscent of Dugat's Chapelle-Chambertin, this is divine. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (91)The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Alea 1er Cru has a lively bouquet with harmonious, pure brambly red fruit, touches of allspice and clove emerging with time. The palate has a peppermint note on the entry, fine depth, gently grippy tannins and a touch of spice on the solid finish. This is cruising along nicely. |

The palate is medium-bodied with firm, finely-chiselled tannins, very good weight with just a hint of menthol that enhances the finish. |

Wine Advocate (90-92)There are around 30 barrels of Trapet's 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Village, a lovely wine that mingles notes of wild berries with hints of dark chocolate, exotic spices and violets. Medium to full-bodied, lively and concentrated, it's deep and lively, with powdery tannins and a long, perfumed finish. This derives from eight different parcels spread throughout the appellation. |

The fresh, vibrant, medium-bodied palate presents fine-grained tannin, crisp acidity and a succinct, mineral-driven, detailed finish that does this grand cru proud. Bon vin!

Tim Atkin MW (97)Latricières position at the foot of the Combe Grisard means that its wines often show freshness and breeziness. That’s the case here in this fine, precise, focused red, showing floral aromas and flavours of pomegranate and orange zest. Nuanced, long and made to age, despite its lightness of touch. |

Vinous (94-96)The 2017 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru has a tight-lipped bouquet, reticent at the moment, though it reluctantly opens with blackberry, bilberry and light graphite aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannin and a supremely well judged line of acidity that makes this Grand Cru feel so natural and refined. This is a rare case of a sensual Latricières in the making. Bon vin! |
