Domaine Rapet Père et Fils Pernand Vergelesses Blanc Les Combottes 2022

Domaine Rapet Père et Fils Pernand-Vergelesses Blanc "Les Combottes" 2022 is a fine white wine from one of Burgundy's most authentic villages, where the Rapet family has been growing wine since 1765. The fields in Pernand-Vergelesses are located at the foot of the Corton hill, and "Les Combottes" is known for its chalky soil, which gives the wines a distinctive freshness and minerality.

In the glass, the wine appears light straw yellow with green hues. The aroma is complex and vibrant with notes of citrus, green apples, white flowers and freshly ground lime, complemented by subtle hints of almond and butter from the gentle barrel aging.

The palate is elegant and well-structured with a clean, fresh fruit profile and a lively acidity that gives energy and precision. The wine has a nice balance between the fullness of the fruit and the mineral expression of the terroir, which gives an almost salty, chalky aftertaste. A wine with nerve, finesse and aging potential.

Domaine Rapet Pernand-Vergelesses Blanc "Les Combottes" 2022 is an obvious choice for seafood, grilled fish, scallops, sushi or light meat dishes with delicate sauces. It can be drunk young for its freshness, but will develop greater complexity over the next 5–7 years.
