  • TASTING NOTE: "Here there is enough reduction present to push the underlying fruit to the background. There is both slightly better richness as well as better concentration to the medium weight flavors that are finer while delivering a bit more depth on the dusty and youthfully austere finale." BURGHOUND
  • ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Make no mistake, there is plenty of reason to be very excited about the incoming 2022 Burgundies. Read any pundits thoughts after tasting these wines and you can feel the genuine surprise and excitement about how wonderful the wines are. Quality appears very good to excellent across the board with the warm weather delivering lovely ripe, concentrated fruit and the timely rains giving the wines the requisite freshness and tension to buffer. It's clear that while these are wines that typify modern Burgundy, where succulent fruit takes the stage early on making them hard to resist, yet the structure sits under the hood in the best wines allowing them to age marvelously. This style seems to play right into the hands at Raphet, a Domaine whose wines are typified by bright and vivid fruit, intoxicating perfumes and just a sense of ethereal beauty. Pair that with the subtle changes seen since Gerard's daughter Marion has been handed the winemaking and viticulture keys, more density and a refinement of tannins to name a few, and you have the perfect storm for what is one of our most loved Burgundy imports. Make no mistake this is an estate whose star continues to rise, and while style here remains a constant, everything is now getting dialled in and turned up to a level where the wines not only grab your attention, but command it. The key to Raphet's success has always been built on their vineyard holdings. Their Bourgogne Rouge for example is drawn from lieux-dits surrounded by Grand Cru vineyards,  their Gevrey Chambertin is from a plot sliced out of Charmes-Chambertin, with vines creeping up to 100 years old. Their Morey St Denis combines fruit from two 1er cru sites, Clos des Ormes and Les Millandes, and yet is labelled, and priced, at the village level. Clos Vougeot is a vineyard where location can be the difference between transcendent and mediocre, and the Raphet's have a brilliant old vine parcel and make one of the finest wines you will see from this site. With fruit from these stellar holdings at her disposal Marion, who pairs her lifelong experience at Gerard's side with an Oenology degree, is showing she is the final piece of the puzzle for this already much adored estate.
