Average Critic Score: 93.8/100 based on 4 critic reviews

A magnum of the 2022, the year before the current release, and a chance to set two fine vintages side by side. The 2022 leans more on flint and reduction in its youth, with toasted-nut and citrus-rind complexity over a glossy, mineral frame. A year of lovely balance on the hill of Corton, and in large format a wine to bring out for a table that matters.

Domaine Rapet Père et Fils (Pernand-Vergelesses)
Farming the hill of Corton since 1765, led by Vincent Rapet with son Robin. A reference for Corton-Charlemagne across twenty hectares of old vines, with reds that have risen to match the whites.

Critic Reviews

96 Points - Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy

“90% is from the Pernand. Side, a third old vines, a third 20 year old, a third 35 year old. And guess what, the youngest are in the worst condition. Some tressed, some worked by winch. Pale colour, a beautifully mineral nose, properly shows its terroir. The wine picks up speed further back on the palate, opening out very nicely. Very attractive. Original score: 93-96 points”

94 Points - William Kelley, Wine Advocate

“Another strong performance from Rapet, the 2022 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru unwinds in the glass with aromas of pear and crisp orchard fruit mingled with toasted nuts, white flowers and waxy citrus rind. Medium to full-bodied, layered and textural, with a glossy, concentrated profile, excellent underlying cut and a long, mineral finish, it's a very good wine that still flies somewhat under the radar. Original score: RP 94+”

93 Points - Neal Martin, Vinous

“The 2022 Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru has a very terse nose. It opens with struck flint-quite a bit of reduction here-and a very light fish scale scent in the background that imparts complexity. The palate is well balanced, with a slightly creamy-textured opening, flavors of chamomile and lemon curd and a fine bead of acidity. Impressive substance comes through on the finish. Give this two to three years in bottle. Tasted at merchants' 2022 Burgundy tastings in London. (Drink between 2026-2045)”

92 Points - Allen Meadows, Burghound

“This is aromatically pretty similar to the Sous Fretille but with more citrus and slightly more evident wood influence. On the palate there is more size and weight to the rich and generously proportioned larger-bodied flavors that display solid power on the youthfully austere, balanced and very dry finale. Like several of the wines the range, this needs better depth but that's often the case with CC in its youth. (Drink starting 2030)”
