Producer Information
Grard Raphet is a wine producer located in the Burgundy village of Morey-Saint-Denis. It was established in the 1920s and has been family-owned for four generations. The domaine produces regional, village, premier cru, and grand cru Burgundy wines from mature Pinot Noir vines, some over 100 years old. Raphet’s top bottlings include wines from the grand cru vineyards Clos de Vougeot, Chambertin Clos-de-Bze, Charmes-Chambertin and Clos de la Roche. The domaine’s vineyard holdings span more than 12 hectares (30 acres) around Morey-Saint-Denis and Gevrey-Chambertin. Vines are tended by hand and farmed by the lutte raisonne approach, or “reasoned struggle,” whereby organic principles are used except under extreme circumstances. Grapes are harvested by hand and sorted before fermentation via indigenous yeasts. Depending on the quality level, wines are aged for 12 to 18 months in French oak barrels, typically 15 percent new.
