"A bit reserved and firmly dense, with dark plummy fruit, grippy tannins and yet an elegant extraction that is sensitive and not at all overdone. Superb. From the 0.35ha parcel in Petite Chapelle with its thin, stony soils close to the mother rock which is composed of limestone called calcaire à entroques because of the fossils it contains. In contrast to the nearby Grande Chapelle, it seems very 'Gevrey'." Decanter
"I do so love Petite Chapelle! The 2020 version from Domaine Trapet is a stellar wine in the making, offering up a very refined nose of black cherries, black plums, cigar wrapper, dark soil tones, cocoa powder, gamebird, woodsmoke and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and already showing the first signs of velvetiness on the attack, with a sappy core of fruit, lovely soil inflection, ripe, seamless tannins and a long, tangy and very complex finish. Stunning juice." John Gilman
"The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Petite Chapelle reveals notes of cherries, wild berries, rose petals, licorice and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, bright and vibrant, with tangy acids and a long, saline finish, it's more tightly wound than the Clos Prieur." Wine Advocate
