Like the Romanée Saint-Vivant

moderate levels of acidity that segues to a very peppery and vivacious finish

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

the 2004 Dom Pérignon Rosé is explosive and hedonistically rich

As with the rest of the 2014s

Domaine Chevalier other_regions Like the Romanée Saint-VivantThe 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.
