TRAPET ALSACE

Andrée Trapet embodies the winegrowing profession more than any other: the alliance of wine, terroir and family. Married to Burgundy winemaker Jean-Louis Trapet (Gevrey-Chambertin), she decided in 2002 to take over her parents' Alsace vineyard: 6 hectares of vines located on the Riquewhir terroir.

This passionate winegrower extended the family's vineyards to include 4 Alsace grands crus. Domaine Trapet Alsace now covers 14 hectares. While Andrée Trapet works with wine in the wake of her parents, she is also developing a personal vision of the winegrowing profession, aided by her sons Pierre and Louis Trapet.

Location of Domaine Trapet Alsace

The birthplace of Domaine Trapet Alsace lies in the village of Riquewihr, in the south-central part of the Alsace wine region. Andrée Trapet's vineyards cover 4 Grand Cru appellations: Sonnenglanz, Schoenenbourg, Sporen and Schlossberg. Situated on hills between 200 and 400 meters above sea level, they benefit from maximum sunshine and rich, varied soils (limestone, marl and clay). The vines of these lieux-dits flourish around the famous villages of Riquewihr, Kientzheim, Mittelwihr, Zellenberg, Hunawihr and Beblenheim.
