90 points, Allen Meadows, Burghound
This is aromatically similar to the villages cuvée of Fourneaux with perhaps slightly more evident wood. There is good power and more volume to the delicious medium-bodied flavors that possess more size and weight, all wrapped in a mildly more rustic and youthfully austere finish. Drink: 2030+

From the part of this climat classified in premier cru, where the vines are also older and the soils shallower, Rapet's 2022 Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Aux Fourneaux exhibits aromas of dark berries, cherries, orange zest and petals, followed by a medium to full-bodied, velvety palate that's suave and lively.
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.
