Wine description for Marsannay blanc AOC 2022 from Trapet Père & Fils
Colour & appearance
The wine presents itself in the glass in a bright golden yellow with striking green reflections - a typical sign of the youthful freshness of a still young Burgundy from a cooler climate.
Nose
The bouquet surprises with an unusually expressive aroma for a Marsannay: exotic notes of Pineapple and Grapefruit meet classic Burgundian flavours of ripe fruit and Pear and Lime. This is accompanied by floral accents of verbena, a subtle ginger spice and a hint of aniseed. The fine almond and butter notes indicate skilful work with the wood, while mineral nuances and a hint of cedar add complexity.
Palate
This Marsannay blanc shows all its class on the palate: juicy, with a seductive fruitiness that is never overpowering. The acidity is lively but perfectly integrated - a balancing act that Jean-Louis Trapet has mastered here. The medium body is supported by a fine mineral texture that gives the wine structure and length. The finish is remarkably persistent, characterised by spicy notes and a salty minerality that invites you to take another sip.
General information
Trapet Père & Fils is one of the pioneers of biodynamic viticulture in Burgundy. The Marsannay blanc comes from the northernmost appellation of the Côte de Nuits and offers an exceptional price-pleasure ratio for Burgundian Chardonnay. With 13% alcohol, the wine remains elegant and easy to drink.
Food pairing suggestions
This versatile white wine harmonises perfectly with Scallops, Lobster in butter sauce, Poultry Terrines or a classic Coq au Vin blanc. Also to Goat cheese, Comté or one Quiche Lorraine it is an excellent accompaniment. Asian cuisine with Ginger and Lemon grass benefits from its aromatic complexity.
Special features
An accessible, charming Burgundy style that proves that great wines do not always have to come from the Premier Crus. Already a pleasure to drink now, with potential for a further 3-5 years of ageing in the bottle.
