Domaine Rapet Père Et Fils' lineage can be traced back to at least 1765 thanks to a dated, silver tastevin much treasured by the family.
Rapet is one of the most ancient families of the Côte D’Or and the estate is now under the control of Vincent Rapet and his charming wife Sylvette who manage the 20 hectares with skill and a keen eye to nature. Based in the village of Pernand-Vergelesses, Domaine Rapet’s vineyards lie on and around the hill of Corton.
Drinking window: 2024 - 2032
What the critics say:
"The 2021 Pernand-Vergelesses 1er Cru Ile de Vergelesses is lovely, wafting from the glass with aromas of sweet red berries and cherries mingled with orange zest, warm spices and peonies. Medium to full-bodied, supple and seamless, with good concentration and a bright, vibrant profile, this will repay some bottle age."
"One quarter was replanted in 2016, the rest is made up of very old vines. Bright fresh and light on its feet, both in colour and the first nose. A finer quality than the straight Vergelesses. Softly charming then with the right structure to hold together the finish. A wine of sensitivity and finesse. Drink from 2025-2030. Tasted: October 2022. ****"
