100% whole bunch vinification on fruit from two plots making up half a hectare with light soil which drains well. Powerful mid crimson purple. A definite peppery aspect here. Very perfumed roses and peonies taking over from the initial pepper. But the white spice returns at the finish. It will take time for the sweet fruit to triumph over the drier finish which it will.

The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin "Cuvée 1859" was blended in the Ostrea until 2019 and is named after the first two parcels owned by the Trapet family. It is 60% echalas and 100% whole bunches. It has heart-warming purity on the nose: Morello cherries and blackcurrant very precise and focused. The palate is medium-bodied with chalky tannins fresh and very saline towards the finish. Quite Morey-like in terms of backbone - real length here. Excellent. (Drink between 2026 - 2040) By Neal Martin

Moderate wood surrounds the ripe vaguely liqueur-like aromas of various dark berries spice violet and lavender. The vibrant and beautifully textured middleweight flavors indeed it's almost silky thanks to the fine-grained tannins supporting the lingering finish that firms up noticeably. This is an excellent Gevrey villages with good aging potential. (Drink starting 2030) By Allen Meadows
Wine Advocate: 90-92 Points
As readers may remember the 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin 1859 derives from old vines in lieu-dit Champerrier that the Trapet family acquired in 1859. Unfurling in the glass with aromas of sweet red berries and plums mingled with orange zest rose petals and spices it's medium to full-bodied supple and velvety with a fleshy core of fruit lively acids and a suave layered profile.
