Note: a cuvée of three 1er Crus that include Corbeaux, En Ergot, and Combottes; 100% whole cluster vinification. "Amongst this stellar lineup of 2015 premier crus chez Trapet, the Capita is the finest this year. The bouquet is deep, pure and nascently complex, delivering a refined, sappy blend of red and black cherries, raw cocoa, grilled beef, black minerality, woodsmoke and a gentle framing of spicy oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very intensely flavored, with a rock solid core, great mineral drive, ripe, chewy tannins and great length and grip on the still very primary finish. This is a powerful premier cru that is also seamless and flawlessly balanced. Great juice."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
The Cote de Nuits' largest Grand Cru commune, producing powerful, structured and deeply flavored Pinot Noir built for long aging.
2015 in Burgundy was warm and dry, yielding concentrated, powerful and opulent reds with ripe tannins from low yields; the whites are richer and generous, though some show comparatively lower acidity.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
