2020 Domaine de la Pepiere - Muscadet Sevre et Maine Monnieres-Saint Fiacre (750ml)
Price: $29.99
In Mixed Case: $26.99
Muscadet is an appellation in the Loire Valley in France. The wine is made from 100% Melon de Bourgogne, a distant cousin to Chardonnay. Pepiere is pretty much the gold standard for the lofty yet humble heights that Melon de Bourgogne can achieve in Muscadet. It’s a classic oyster pairing wine and offers insane value, wonderful ageability and tons of class. Monnieres-St-Fiacre was the first officially designated cru in Muscadet, and the vines are planted in sandy limestone on gneiss soils. Pépière owns 3.35 hectares within the cru. The vines were planted in 1948, 1984 and 1991. This wine is very open and giving and can also be a great cocktail wine. ’20 is the current release and a wine that would cruise in the cellar for at least a decade.
