Domaine Rossignol-Trapet’s 2007 Latricières-Chambertin is a gorgeous example of the vintage, with fine purity and building complexity very much in evidence on both the nose and palate. The excellent bouquet delivers a complex mélange of desiccated cherries, red plums, cocoa, incipient notes of roasted meat, sous bois, woodsmoke and a deft touch of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and developing with great style, with an excellent core of fruit, suave, moderate tannins, lovely focus and complexity and a very long, pure and still nicely reserved finish that augurs extremely well for its future development. This is a wine that is certainly accessible already, but three or four more years of bottle age will really reward one’s patience with a wine in full bloom and velvety on the palate! 2017-2040+.
