Domaine Rapet is located in Pernand-Vergelesses, in Burgundy. The estate has been known since 1765 and includes 20 hectares of vines in the villages of Pernand-Vergelesses, Savigny-Lès-Beaune, Chorey-Lès-Beaune, Aloxe-Corton and Beaune. Within the vineyard, they set up a sustainable viticulture against diseases and insects of the vine according to climatic conditions. An inventory of the operation listing all the elements promoting the diversity of fauna and flora has been carried out.

Rapet brings in the grapes in small crates for careful sorting in the winery; a conveyor belt is used for filling the tanks in order to respect the grapes. The fermentation lasts 15 days with pigeages, punching down of the cap, allowing the wine to soak up the richness and the colour from the grape-skins before pressing. Ageing takes place in barrels of which 20 % are new. Racking by the means of a bellow eliminates the need for a pump. All these precautions limit handling of the grapes and the wine as much as possible, thus preserving all the richness.
