The Domaine Rapet Pere & Fils Pernand-Vergelesses Blanc 2020 is a delightful expression of the region's terroir, showcasing ripe green fruit and warm stone aromas, framed by a subtle touch of pain grillé. The middle weight flavors are accessible and forward, with a punchy finish that is both satisfying and unpretentious.

While not overly complex, this wine boasts a distinct personality, making it a standout among its peers. Enjoyable now, this wine has the potential to evolve beautifully over the years.

Domaine Rapet Pere et Fils is a Burgundy winery based in Pernand-Vergelesses, between the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune. Founded in 1765, it now owns 20 hectares of vineyards located in the communes of Pernand-Vergelesses, Savigny Les Beaune, Chorey Les Beaune, Aloxe-Corton and Beaune.

At the reins of the winery are Vincent and Sylvette, who manage the vineyards with a certified sustainable approach, which is based on three fundamental principles: biodiversity, fertilisation management by analysing each vineyard plot to provide it with exactly the modification it needs, which allowed in 2018 to reduce the use of fertilisers by 50%, the same goes for pesticide control. Underlying all this is the idea of making wine with respect for the terroir.
