Goedhuis, December 2020
This impressive Premier Cru faces the hillside of Corton Charlemagne. The cool east-facing white marl slope makes it an ideal site for growing Chardonnay with a high degree of purity. An extremely mineral style this year, vibrant and lively with a gentle white fruit flavoured finish.

Wine Advocate, January 2021, Score: 91+
For what is generally a rather demonstrative wine, the 2019 Pernand-Vergelesses 1er Cru En Caradeux Blanc was quite tightly wound when I tasted it, unfurling in the glass with notes of pear, orange oil and toasted bread. Medium-bodied, lively and reserved, it's taut and mineral, concluding with a mouthwatering finish. Drink 2023-2040

Domaine Rapet Pere et Fils can trace its history back as far as 1765. The Estate comprises 18 hectares of vines in the villages of Pernand-Vergelesses, Savigny les Beaune, Aloxe Corton and Beaune. Located between Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune, the Pernand Vergelesses vineyard, tucked away in the green surroundings of a quiet valley, begins at the foot of Corton hill. It is the only vineyard to offer the whole range of vintages, in both white and red wines. Ageing of both red and white wines occurs in oak barrels (30% new for white and 20% new for red). All winery processes are undertaken to minimise the handling of the grapes.Read less

Region
Pernand Vergelesses
With its neighbours, Ladoix Serrigny and Aloxe-Corton, Pernand Vergelesses has its own village and premier cru appellations but shares the two grand crus: Corton, a red made from Pinot Noir, and Corton Charlemagne, a white made from Chardonnay. The limestone marl soil is well-suited to growing Chardonnay and the resulting white wines are crisp and mineral with a good capacity for ageing. Pinot Noir is planted in areas of redder iron-rich soil and the best vineyards produce charmingly soft red wines with classic notes of raspberries and violets.
