Domaine de la Pepiere, Clos des Briords, Muscadet, Sevre-et-Maine Sur Lie, Loire, France, 2023

Overview of the Wine
On the doorstep of Brittany, Domaine de la Pépière is located in the village of Maisdon sur Sèvre. On the doorstep of Brittany, Domaine de la Pépière dwells in the village of Maisdon sur Sèvre. Its history as a winery dates from 1984 when Marc, a boy from the hamlet of La Pépière, created the domain.

Since its creation, Domaine de la Pépière has kept on growing over the years through the purchase of well-targeted plots, often old and situated on outstanding terroirs.

Melon B., the unique grape variety used to produce Muscadet, is enhanced by the complexity of the soil and subsoil of the domain: granite, granodiorite, gneiss and gabbro.

As we are convinced that the quality of our wines depend on the quality of our grapes, we choose our working method in line with our philosophy. Rémi’s arrival in 2017 helped the conversion to organic farming and Gwénaëlle’s in 2013 to biodynamics.

2020 was the year when Marc finally retired.

Winemaker's Tasting Notes
The Briords cuvée expresses itself with a great tension, a nice vivacity and lemony notes. Served decanted at 12-14°C, it goes perfectly with raw shellfish, goat cheese.
