La Pepie 2021 Sevre et Maine Muscadet

From Pepiere's home village, organically farmed. After a series of warm years, the acid has returned to this cuvee. The nose shows zippy minerality, green apple, white flowers, and lime. The palate is light with zippy high acid that calls for oysters and a flavor balance that echoes the nose. D&M Tasting Notes

The Domaine de la Pépière is an estate of the Muscadet, in the western wing of the Loire Appellation. The Muscadet wines which are overwhelmingly white have made a comeback in the last years, they were a bit looked down for being light fresh wines but thanks to the good work of several winemakers there, wine amateurs discovered that there could be terroirs behind a Muscadet, and even that these wines could age well.
