Domaine Chevalier other_regions All of the Trapet 2016s

All of the Trapet 2016s are obviously extremely young wines but I cannot recommend buying it as it’s difficult to like at present and I cannot recommend aging it for fear that it will dry out

Here the lightly wooded nose is notably spicy if brooding with mostly dark berry fruit and earth scents holding the upper hand for the moment

round and polished middle weight plus flavors that possess plenty of underlying muscle and power on the hugely long

The wine has a beautiful entry to the palate

Domaine Chevalier other_regions All of the Trapet 2016sThe 2015 Domaine de Chevalier has a perfumed, quite floral bouquet with rose petals and cedar infusing the red berry fruit, nicely detailed with blacker fruit uncovered by aeration. The palate is medium bodied with supple tannins, sweet and rounded, very plush in style with a caressing, femme fatale of a finish. I have actually encountered better bottles than this, though it remains a class act. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting.
