Domaine Rapet Père & Fils

The Rapet family have been farming vineyards in and around Pernand-Vergelesses for many generations. Today Vincent and his son, Robin, run the 20-hectare domaine together with great vigour and enthusiasm. They have some really excellent plots plus a great big parcel of Corton-Charlemagne. Stylistically, the wines are understated and only lightly extracted, with very gentle use of new oak. Most of the reds have some whole-bunch but, again, it’s judiciously used.
