Domaine Rapet Père et Fils Pernand Vergelesses "Les Combottes" 2008 white Burgundy Village AC
Tasted on June 2011
Appearance - clear, medium plus intensity gold hue.
Nose - clean, medium plus intensity aromatics of ripe peach, some marmalade, a hint of orange peel and a floral touch.
Palate - dry, medium minus acidity, medium alcohol level and medium plus body. It maintains a medium plus flavour intensity of ripe stone fruit with a honeyed character, offering a medium length.
Conclusions - (15/20) Good quality, high priced (€25), ready to drink and shouldn't improve further. Very smooth rich palate, very fruit generous overall but lacking acidity to support this excess.
