(1/2021) Domaine de la Pepiere owner Marc Ollivier has fully retired as of 2019. The estate is in the very capable hands of partners Remi Branger and Gwenaelle Croix. Pepiere has been one of our most favorite Muscadet growers for years, with their single Cru "Clisson" bottling being one of their most distinctive bone dry whites. The oldest vines from this vineyard were planted in 1929 and on average the vines are 60 years old. The wine is generous, dense and ageworthy, packed with minerality, salinity and quiet citrus/orchard fruits.

(10/2020) Here's a very nice "natty" old-vine, small-batch, organically-farmed Muscadet. We like this wine because it is immediately recognizable as Melon from the Western Loire; with its expressive but bone-dry, neutral, saline disposition. What this has as a bonus feature is very slight spritz and cloudiness from its lack of filtering. The wine has a very exciting and intense mouthfeel with a little bit of phenolic texture and pineapple fruit on the nice clean finish. Despite its minimal SO2 addition, this wine sang for many days after opening. Tasty!
