Domaine Rapet Beaune Les Cents Vignes Premier Cru 2022
Domaine Rapet Beaune Les Cents Vignes Premier Cru 2022
The 2022 Beaune Les Cent Vignes 1er Cru has a lovely nose with scents of cranberry, strawberry and forest floor—focused, with real Pinoté. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, a fine bead of acidity and an elegant yet ample finish that encourages you back for another sip. This is another impressive 2022 from Rapet. Tasted at merchants' 2022 Burgundy tastings in London.

A slightly more elegant and more layered nose offers up notes of ripe plum, soft earth and a pretty spice nuance. There is both better volume and density to the delicious medium weight flavors that conclude in a youthfully austere, dusty and balanced finish. This also could use both more depth and more 'presence' though this seems to be more promising than the Clos du Roi.
