2021 Bourgogne Blanc | Domaine Rapet Père & Fils
There are virtually no Grand Cru and very few Premier Cru White Burgundies available in Australia or the world.
85-87 Points - Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy
Mid lemon yellow. Quite an intense even exotic nose, with some muscat notes even. Charming in that style, with good natural acidity. Drink from 2024-2026.
86 points, Allen Meadows, Burghound
A cool and distinctly citrusy nose speaks mainly of green apple scents. The racy and delicious flavors possess excellent precision as well as reasonable length on the slightly lean and crisp finale. To enjoy young for its fruit. Drink: 2024+
As the Premier & Grand Cru shortages hit home I asked a revered Western Australian Burgundian fanatic if he had any recommendations as to more potential White Burgundy suppliers. He answered immediately “Rapet Pere & Fils”. I had also asked two of my friends in Burgundy for recommendations of quality Domaines that did not have representation in Australia. Both checked with their friends and one came back offering Morey Coffinet & … Rapet Pere & Fils.
