Domaine de la Pépière Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Sur Lie 2024/25

	Delicious as a refreshing aperitif
	Also great with mussels or light fish dishes

Description
Thanks to winemakers such as Rémi Branger and Gwénaëlle Croix, good Muscadet is one of the best recommendations for lovers of elegant, fresh, cool-climate wines. According to the wine press, their Domaine de la Pépière ranks among the top in the region. Here, everything revolves around refinement, freshness, length of flavor, and terroir expression, based on the philosophy of a biodynamic approach with minimal intervention.

Rémi and Gwénaëlle produce the Sur Lie from the region's unique Melon de Bourgogne grape, harvested in well-drained gravel vineyards with vines approximately 25 years old. The fairly dry soil results in a limited yield, which translates into high-quality grapes.

After manual harvesting, the grapes are immediately fermented naturally in the cellar—without any additives. This is followed by the aging 'sur lie' (on the lees) so characteristic of the region.

It yields a beautiful and intensely pure Muscadet, with a lovely freshness and length of flavor. A delicious wine to drink on its own, but also fantastic with mussels or light fish dishes.

Drinks with
Subtle, crisp dry white wine to drink on its own or with light (fish) dishes. Delicious with Salade Niçoise, stir-fried cod with spring vegetables, mussels Flemish style, or young, hard cheeses.

Tasting note
Delicate white wine with aromatic notes of flowers, apple, pear, and brioche. Juicy, creamy, and invigorating on the palate with white stone fruit. The finish is beautifully dry and refined with saline nuances.

Shelf life
Now beautiful and keeps for approximately 4 years after harvest.
